This sounds like one of the principled people that Carl speaks of who
won't go beyond technician because they don't believe in the Morse test.
Is this typical of Carl's new people?

Possibly, Mike. I know you didn't ask me, but I can't help but make the
statement that if even so, it would be nice for you to be astute enough not
to roll everyone into your neat little package.


For the purposes of the group, I don't think it's too bad an idea to
try to find out a few things about this one.

Here is a person that claims to know Morse code, but has refused to
test for it for nine years. This would appear to be the mythical person
that avoids Ham radio because of the evil Morse code (emphasis mine)
that The prez of NCI speaks of.

I say appears to be, because we have a person that comes in here like
gangbusters, manages to annoy a lot of us, and uses argument techniques
mostly designed to p**s us off, not to make a point.

I personally think this person is just a troll, and not a very good
troll either.


Bob may be the kind of
person you allude to, I don't know; he will have to speak to that with you.


Hehe, won't happen now.

But, damned few people who don't like CW have avoided/boycotted higher class
licensure until CW went away. In fact, I know no one like that.


Correct, and that is a big part of my decision that this is just a
third rate troll.

I like to come in here and have a good disagreement with people, but
his posts do not constitute a good disagreement. You've seen it yourself
- the odd leading questions, the asking of all sorts of quewstions,
followed by a refusal to answer any, and outrageous little things such
as assigning numerical value to non-numerical statements.

All things calculated to get an indignant response.
