Well, folks, there it is -- as I've been saying for years, it's all about
getting a microphone in hand and yakking away!

That's right Larry! The problem is CW may be "semi-officially"
gone, but it's pungent aroma remains. To be honest I really do not
think it makes a difference anyway now, as what young person
in their right mind is going to consider a hobby full of tired old
white men who only shop at the dollar store and "double" time
and time again on the HF nets because they can't even HEAR
each other in the first place thru their $2000 Icom and
Yaesu HF radios? A casual tune thru 20/75/40 meters will
convince anyone of this...

Yack on boys!
