No that is not true. After trying several times to educate the group
and getting responses such as yours he decided to move on as
other experts have done in the past. They are trying to help with the
amateur radio antenna group but realised quite quickly it was
mainly composed of the non antenna type people. They don't need
the sort of things that are stated they move on. He has a Doctorate
and thus he is qualified for some respect

I had to refresh myself on the reasons of his departure..He never
really proved anything.. In fact, at
the end, Richard Clark seemed to be making a pretty good case that he
was misreading, or
misinterpreting the data.. But he never came back to respond to the
last posts.
The way I see it, it never really was agreed on one way or the other.
I'm fairly sure he
failed to convince a few on here. Seems to me, with his vast storages
of knowledge,
having a doctorate, papers on wall, etc, that he should have been
able to settle things
real quick just by shear brute force of reasoning. Didn't seem to work
that way.
But all this is really moot. It doesn't matter. Even if he was
correct, I'm still
fairly certain that the antennas you are cooking up don't rely on such
exotic
"gaussian" methods to function. Thats assuming you believe in such a
thing..

This debate has finally supplied the reason why Industry is demanding
more immigration from other countries. It wasn't like this in my
working
years but Bill Gates is adament that the present crop of graduates
is not up to snuff for reasons I do not know. The Insurance industry
is making no bones about the same thing. In my town we have two
universities
and another two within 60 miles yet we also have a thriving business
for the importation of Indian engineers, 100s of them with families.
GE has basically left as has Eureka vacuum machines and many other
industries
There has been one replacement that came here from Japan building cars
but they need more and more money to stay here. Why our education
system
is failing or if this group is representitive of what industry does
not
want I do not know, but the fact is to pay thousands of dollars for
an
experience that industry is not interested in will lead to a further
decrease in education as the surge of imported education fills the
ever increasing gap. Ofcourse we can threaten other countries that
have
supplied our rust belt with statements like 'you are with us or
against us'
but the fact is we are not a world leader anymore but an importer of
what we cannot produce for ourselves to make a paper empire.
It used to be that capitalism was the envy of the world where
the market ruled until America found out it was much cheaper to
manipulate the market to suit and where education can be outscourced.
I suppose the question has to be asked, is this group representitive
of an America that we want to see in our grandchildrens future or
does arrogance have a down side of a World wide nature?
