Does this mean the fact that you forsake the Morse code communications
venue indicates that you "just don't have a clue for the value of that
venue"? (Your words, not mine.)

Sunuvagun!

I just discovered this post, Hans. You have a better capability of
understanding than what is demonstrated above. I do not, and never have
forsaked CW communication. Perhaps you can give me an idea as to how I
caused you to think that?

And, please don't get confused with the *testing* requirement, which I don't
like; and that I don't like using it. Just because someone doesn't see its
merit as a testing element and just because I don't use the mode, does not
mean I don't believe in its value. Every area where I have had any
influence in emergency communication has always included a venue for *any*
form of radio communication, CW included; ATV included; etc.

Kim:

For someone who has often characterized herself as an intelligent person,
you would appear to have a poor grasp of the meaning and usage of the
word "venue." A "venue" (n.) is a place, a locality, a location for something
to take place. Your incorrect usage of this term would tend to indicate
an inclination toward prolixity. I suggest that you eschew obfuscation
and select less egregiously irrelevant verbiage, lest you be accused
of circumlocution.
