Dwight:

Well so far, I haven't heard any complaints from anyone but you.
Objection noted. That doesn't mean I'll desist.

For the simple reason that my behavior is
not in question here.


Your behavior is in question here - by me.


However, your "questioning" of my behavior would leave one to suspect
your own motivation. Since you object to the majority of my opinions,
yet seem unequipped to debate me in an effective manner, one can only
conclude that, like all liberals, you just want the opposition (me) to shut
up and go away. That's not going to happen, except at my own
convenience.

So, again, since Kim was
willing to contact Hollingsworth over the choice of her callsign (her
behavior), why don't you contact Hollingsworth to ask if he feels your
behavior (your use of his words to publicly harass Kim for many months) has
any effect on Ham Radio?


Asked and answered.

Kim is not being "harassed." She is merely
experiencing the justified reaction to an
action she took which is potentially harmful
to the image of the ARS, and that is my
right -- just as it was Kim's "right" to
self-select a call sign with a vulgar,
sexualized, and demeaning connotation which
reflects poorly on YL radio amateurs
everywhere. (snip)


Get off your pulpit, Larry. You do not speak for YL radio amateurs. My
wife is not offended by Kim's callsign. Instead, she thinks you're stuck in
a sexist past - a past where men told women what they could and could not
do. That past is gone.


With all due respect to your XYL, she is not qualified to judge me. She
has no idea how I relate to women in person. Moreover, I don't tell ANYONE
what they can and cannot do. All I am trying to do is influence Kim to
make up her own mind to do the right thing.

That is two female radio amateurs (Kim and my wife) saying the opposite of
what you claim. So exactly where are all those YL radio amateurs you claim
are offended by Kim's callsign, Larry?


I have never stated that any specific YL hams *were* offended by Kim's
call sign. I have only stated that I agree with Riley Hollingsworth when he
says that Kim's call sign has the potential to do harm to the image of the ARS,
and YL hams in general. Kim and your XYL prove absolutely nothing
with regard to the validity of my objections to her (Kim's) call sign.
