So if someone sits on the VB code for EZNEC, just rebuild it .Mono on

My gawd man. Let us hope no serious program is ever written in Visual
Basic!


Oh, I forgot, some idiots did do that, didn't they?


I don't think that was called for.

We may like Linux, but programming just for Windows doesn't make
somebody an idiot.

The bottom line should be is EZNEC accurate? Has the programming been
held within the confines provided by the original provider'
the U.S. government. Who overseas the content of this so called
program. If it has a patent then all would or should be revealed
in the patent disclosure. Has anybody taken this for his own use for
the advancement of science which is the reason for patents?
Has anybody upgraded the assigned patent for the sake of science
or has something not been disclosed to prevent true examination
and as such invalidates the patent? Does the government have the
option of review of all algorithms or are they in the same position
the country is with voting machines? Basically the purchaser is really
in the position of caveat emptor especially since all programs provide
different results!

Art,
wouldn't it be better if you picked knitting or bird watching?
You would not have to deal with all of us morons and overseas governments
that don't get your brilliance.
