Perhaps we should have a two class system, with only Generals and
Extras?
Dang....a two tier license structure not mandated by the government?
Heaven
forbid...hi.
There should be some sort of beginner's license that an average 14 year
old honor roll student
can get. Just like the cigarette companies, get them while they're young.

There might actually be some merit to that. Teenagers are still quite
moldable, and would be excellent candidates to "mold' them into the hams
that we want them to be, in the ham community. (Especially with making them
code enthusiasts as well.) Now for the naysayers...... this would mean
identifying those with the aptitude towards ham radio, not to all the teens,
just the "right" ones, whatever that means.
