Personal advice from the anonymous. More irony than value there; and
you could as easily be Ossama Bin Forgotten wishing us Deadly
Christmas and a Satan hugging New Year muttered under your beard.


As Cecil, so eloquently, pointed out--others will know you by your
posts, they'll figure me out too ...

Others might teach me about manners, but they haven't weighed in, have
they? They would put the substance of their names behind their
lesson, and they would have a reputation of civil discourse in
contrast to mine. It's happened before, but you and Cecil aren't
standing in that long line.


Yes, shallow "Hero Worship" is at the core of your being ... we already
knew that, you kiss the gods butt, they kiss yours--sometimes ...


As for being bored? This has been a grind, certainly; 600+ postings
informs us all of that! [Talk about the bleeding obvious. Reggie
would have his thumb in your eye.] You getting bored, however, speaks
only to your own veiled hedonism. Your moral balance is seized with
the rust of anonymity.


I pity newbie hams, they have to figure out that your kind can be easily
avoided and the hobby can still be enjoyable, too bad we lose a few that
can't stomach the BS ...

Want to move away from personalities? Try participating with
technical comments or providing data. Cecil abandoned it with his
claim of being hounded with 20 questions. How many more than 20
questions litter this thread from him? How much data arrived from
those 20 questions? Did you find yourself informed during that
interchange? Did none of them raise your interest to engage your own
participation? Was there anything in their relation to the
measurement that revealed success or failure? Did you find anything
"personal" in their revelation? Did you laud or challenge that
enquiry or its analysis? Did it elicit any questions? Frankly, you
show very little interest in these topics except when the
entertainment becomes a bit too purple. It has, no doubt about it;
but you don't even have the critic's qualifications to do anything
more than phone in a vote to American Idol and hope Simon doesn't pick
up the line.


Frankly, and certainly, at this point, I do not feel accustomed enough
to a smith chart, the "nuiances" of reflected waves nor the esoteric
concepts which are being argued--I am attempting to come up to speed.
Nothing wrong with being a student and that is what I am in this
debate/exchange/discourse/argument/etc.

You chose to respond to the comedy, and stood silent in the exchange
of idea and information. No, I don't see any lesson offered here by
you that you don't need learning first.


Richard, if you could not have made it as a test tech, you could have
always joined the circus as a clown, I am sure you would have been quite
successful! I only wonder how clowns of the Shakespearian era dressed? ;-)
