What about thier constant use of the term "CBplusser" and
so forth...

Because it fits.



The hams I
have met personally that came out of 11 meters were the best hams I ever
met.

Thats because Birds of a Feather stick together, and you dont have a CLUE what
a REAL HAM is. And thats another reason you will always be a CBPLUSSER.
