Kim says my posts lack intelligence. I guess, from her POV, that may
be true. She obviously defines "intelligence" as being in agreement with
her, or supporting whatever she says or does. I can, therefore, understand
why she would want to avoid further debate with someone with whom she
would have to make an effort to defend herself. I'll say one thing for Kim --
she knows how to look into a mirror and see a lost cause.

Now if only you'd follow suit, look into the FCC's report and order
from the last restructuring, and recognize what a lost cause it is
trying to retain a testing requirement that should have been
eliminated 25 years ago and will soon be eliminated regardless of how
may times the same arguments that didn't work last time are retyped
and refiled with FCC this time.

Qouth the FCC:

"We believe that an individual's ability to demonstrate increased
Morse code proficiency is not necessarily indicative of that
individual's ability to contribute to the advancement of the radio
art. As a result, we find that such a license qualification rule is
not in furtherance of the purpose of the amateur service and we do not
believe that it continues to serve a regulatory purpose."

Yeah, I'll repeat:

"...such a license qualification rule is not in furtherance of the
purpose of the amateur service..."

If you'll be so cooperative as to tell us which part of that you have
difficulty comprehending, we'll try to help you.
