200 KW generator? More solar panels than Gore? Your public sector union
job must have been very rewarding. Is it not hypocritical to now demand
government destroy unions? Why is it alright for *you* to get a 5700
percent subsidy from the taxpayer for your pension, but not for the guy
that replaced you?

If the system sucks so bad, then why don't you return the money? Help
the country out.

If he gets no S-meter deflection on a cheap radio then something is
wrong. You should always get a little surge when the antenna is
connected. There is no place that doesn't receive noise from outer space
and the atmosphere.
