So when are you going to stop talking and do it? Otherwise take what's
available and stop whining and putting down other people choices (i.e.
SHUT UP). 99% of us couldn't care less what your opinions are- as in
"sharing them" - you've managed to insult and alienate many people here
in a very short period of time. If that wasn't your intention - then I
suggest you review your words and consider them from other's
perspective. If it was your intention (as your overly broad slam against
Mac users, seems to indicate -- and no , I'm NOT a Mac user)- then

Not warmest regards - in fact with growing disdain...

Well, gee, I was so enjoying the fact you were out there reading my posts,
what a disappointment now that you have went and dropped me in the old bit
bucket...

And, gee, I did come here just to sit around and idolize everyone... guess
my coarse nature prevents that--oh well, we all have to work with some kind
of handicap--guess we will all survive...

Thanks for pointing out your opinion(s)--I will surely keep it/them in the
back of my mind... perhaps at some future date it/they will be useful, no
knowledge is without merit...

Don't attribute more to me than I am capable of though, can't really take
the credit for "alienating" anyone--they all have free wills and do as they
please--really, I don't have that much control over people--it is really
their strengths and weaknesses which limit or raise them to the heights they
find themselves standing at... thanks for being so flattering though...
unless you meant I should suffer others "control freak" natures--then I must
decline...

Since I have been in the exchange of text, here is this thread-all I have
gotten is a list of won't work, shouldn't work, isn't supposed to work and
might be illegal or offensive to "radio gods"-I don't work that way-indeed,
if the purpose of this is to stop anything-it has exactly the opposite
effect. I can tell from the lack of young and dynamic minds here that you
have been successful, either by intention or not, at quelling all but
conversations revolving around tried and true ideas and in the discussion
and worship of ancient texts-which are obscure and difficult to obtain and
hinder learning by those very facts. interesting way to "run a ship" but not
very conductive to getting anything done. I think most tire of this and
move on-leaving a bunch of grouchy old farts that wish to get back to
worshiping some ancient ham/author that wrote a book/article a few decades
ago. and not be bothered with having to think. not surprising that amateur
radio reflects what is done/said here... and suffers for it.

While this may please some-it does not please me-one must ignore this all
and move on. if you or any others need "ego stroking" perhaps there is
already such a newsgroup thread, or, one could be created. I am almost
positive you will find what you want there-certainly, if not, you will be
left alone there--most likely with others of your ilk--perhaps this will
generate a need to start up a mutual admiration society, and another
newsgroup thread will spring to life.

Warmest regards,
John


Warmest regards,
