It's actually a good thing when folks come over from "the Dark Side". When
new to Hamdom it's almost certain they'll slip up and occasionally use their
old "jargon". When they correct themselves it's also a good thing, since it
means they are aware of their faux pas and are working at improving their
operating procedure and language.

I don't care how people talk, as long as it is in civil fashion. (with
one exception)

But it strikes me odd that people who would *speak* such terms as
"73's", "QSL", and others, not to mention my all time favorite, "HI
HI", do not have much of an argument when they complain about a person
referring to S-units as "pounds".......


For cryin out loud, if its funny , LAUGH, don't say HI HI!
