I think that may be a prevailing sentiment and character
trait of that crowd, actually.

After talking to them enough, you FINALLY get out
of them, as I have, the truth (but I suspected it all along).

It's is tantamount to an authoritarian's way of running
a government. Free market forces aren't to dictate
policy or courses of action, but the pointing of fingers
and swinging of riding crops IS. If you read the
various responses that a few of the PCTA types have
made to all of our comments, it all boils down to the following
doctrine...

(1) I had to do it, so should YOU.
(2) It shouldn't be up to a free citizen to operate as he sees
fit; he should do what he's told, for the better good of
the existence of the archaic mode in question (CW)
(3) Shut up, your opinion in the operation of the government
(read: FCC) doesn't matter, and you should not have the
the right to have any influence on how it governs you;
you're the subject of the empire.
(4) The public at large (ham radio operators) should NOT
be BURDENED with having to make choices; they
should not have the freedom to choose how to use
thier skills to the ends that they see fit; such is an
IMPOSITION upon them.

A quote from Paul Cook, a typical "understanding
and tolerant" liberal...

"People like you really have no place in a civilized society although that
same society does try to accommodate you. You're basically an idiot who
takes advantage of what a society has to offer each and every single day
yet
you refuse to acknowledge its cost or its benefits to you. "

Clint, not only can Dave be the smuggest of PCTAs on r.r.a.p., but he
has a certain penchant for obtuseness. He is a master of not
understanding whatever it is that isn't going his way.

actually, it was my tale and he correctly read

I was meaning to say.

Not so, Farnsworth. There is nothing about a PCTA in the tale
anywhere.
You continue to do your reading between the lines.
