I disagree. My bet is that we'll indeed have a de facto two level
license
system but I think they will be General and Extra. The step from Tech
to
General is not that difficult and the licensee will have access to all
modes, power levels and bands. Unless you are into DXing, contesting or
being a VE, the additional privileges that Extra licensees have are not
that much of an advantage.

I agree that this is the way it seems to be heading. However, I think
ARRL
members should pressure the organization to lobby the FCC for another,
coded
class who could exclusively operate on certain sections of the OOK morse
sub
bands.

why do you hate the ARRL and wish them to suffer another bllody nose

I think it would be good for society if we could preserve the mode
for the future, given that there a certain albiet isolated occaisions when
its use can be extremely beneficial to society.

meaning you are convinced that Code can't survive without a stick
aprouch
well then so be it let it die if it is that ill

I don't think morse code use is in that much danger, although we as
Hams would I feel be bettr off if it did die and soon

First, who is the "WE" you refer to and second "WE" Hams feel the same about
you and your ilk
