True, troll is seething and ranting but no one cares. His anger becomes his
own padded cell, with him bouncing around in it.

Ignoring the troll has the same impact, as we've seen in uk.r.a, not to
mention the impact of my ignoring Evans for extended periods.

I'm not so sure he is a troll but rather has mental health issues.

I've seen similar behaviour from those in the early stages of Alzheimer's
and if that is the issue, he won't be around for much longer.

Or he could just be an ordinary nutter.

Well, if he is mentally ill, then by all means let's insult and make fun
of him.

As the above is just guesswork and there is no official diagnosis, at
this point we can concider him to be just a pain in the butt crank.

Perhaps if enough people pour onto him, he will take advantage of that
free health care in the UK and get himself checked out.

The advanced EM texts all describe the mechanism by which short
antennae are poor radiators.

How the once-technical Yankland descends into the abyss of
rednecked abusive ignorance!

Perhaps those legislators who tried to pass a law defining PI as
3 are now the cadre of those holding Ham licences in Yankland?

And yet again the gas bag of gas bags posts pure nonsense.

The tale of a legislature trying to pass a law to make pi 3 was
an April Fool's parody in 1998.

It is not surprising the gas bag believes April Fool's parodies, old
wive's tales, urban legands, and other such nonsense.

I can't resist pointing out that the same Snopes article mentions that
the Indiana house of representatives *did* pass such a bill in 1897.
Though good sense prevailed in the State Senate, apparently. I am
quite sure, however, that this does not affect current mathematical
thinking in this newsgroup!

He may just have been sitting to close to radiating feedlines!
Sometimes I wonder if that is what is happening to me! :-)

I've felt the effects of RF when sitting in my car, and having the
antenna behind me on the trunk. That was when I was using a Chevy
Monte Carlo.. And I tested it several times just to make sure it
was not my imagination. I was also running CW, which of course is
pretty steady power when actually transmitting.
The effect was an uneasy feeling that is hard to describe.
I'd feel it after transmitting a while, and it would go away if
I quit.. Very weird, but I'm convinced it was not my imagination.
I think that was on 80m if I remember right.

I believe 80 m transmissions are right up there with cell phones and
microwave ovens for causing cancer ,no?
