My first wife was Reform Jew. All her older relatives made it out of
Germany via Denmark. I've talked with them at length at the time and also
with many others in the same situation. In the Fairfax area of western Los
Angeles. She died in late 1964, a cancer victim. Are you now going to
"lecture" me on the Holocaust of WW2? Are you now going to assume some kind
of superior moral attitude about "ancestry" because you have such weak
arguments on the retention of morse code testing in an avocational hobby
activity involving radio? May your conscience be forever burdened by the
souls of seven million who died when you profess some kind of outrage in an
argument over code testing. That is a pathetically weak, petty connection
you make. There are several Centers for the Holocaust around the USA. I
would suggest you visit one and spend some time there and reflect on the
reality of that dreadful, terrible happening over half a century ago.
Yarmulke is optional during a visit. Carrying a code key during such a
visit isn't required.

Based on the above, I would think that you would also be sensitive to the
use of the word. Clint could have easily made his argument without invoking
it. As to outrage, mine is real, my relatives who suffered and died were
real, and I *do* take real offense to the use of the word in such a petty
and out of context manner. You should too.
