In particular, the thread in this newsgroup dealing with a most
unfortunate
spat between individuals who happened to have ham radio licenses is
inexcusably inappropriate.

It is not a spat between individuals; it is a one sided vindictive campaign,
a vendetta, by Tomlinson directed at me for which I reserve the right
of reply.

Tomlinson frequently arrives out-of-the-blue spitting feathers from
his spleen when I have been involved in unrelated threads, despite
that I am a champion for the very civility and decency that you seek.

It is an unfortunate truism that there are those from your side of the
pond, jimp, stuckle and john s to name but three who are also immature
spleen a-venters.

Your first sentence sums up the problem: You are too immature to rise above it or ignore those posts. Thus, you become the problem.

There is no reason to reply. All you do is toss petrol on the fire.

Stop feeding the trolls!

Another hypocrite with an holier-than-thou stance who resorts
to the very abuse that he sought to proscribe.

Ahhh, you prove my point! You cannot see the truth when it's right at the end of your own nose.

You want the flames to end? Then stop the flaming! You have the power to do so.

I am disgusted and utterly appalled at the total lack of good judgment and
appropriate behavior, to say nothing of common courtesy and ham radio
civility which shows up here on occasion.

I feel embarrassed to be a member of a group who allow this type of
behavior to go unchecked. I sincerely request that those responsible for
posting such material, entirely and utterly unrelated to amateur radio,
take their childish battle off of this news group and any other amateur
radio news group. It is hardly worthy of a children's playground behavior,
let alone a meeting place for technically educated adults.

Here, here!

I tried to appeal to their honorable part and keep their deplorable behavior out
of this group where, as you also point out, it has no business. Thank you for
adding your voice against their totally inappropriate postings in this group.
You put it much better than some others here, (myself included) did.

Hams? Don't you mean drama queens?

If you've been licensed 57 years, then this shouldn't be new for you.

That's why the Wouf-Hong has been around since 1919 and the Rettysnitch
since 1921.

Of course, your post is completely off-topic for this newsgroup.
