Why did you - repeat you - bring up the late Lloyd

Heck, Leonard, it should put you at ease. You don't have one either.


Good grief! Did you have to query QRZ on that one, too?

Robesin did.

"Torturing my words" is a turn of phrase that says that you have twisted
my words' meaning or context, specifically the context in which I might
have used the word "enjoy."


"Might have used?" :-) How "might" you have used it?

I don't live in alternate space-time continuums nor can I
read minds of others.

I never stated that I "enjoy" the negative
behavior that presently goes on in here, nor used synonymous phrasing
(see below).


Tsk. "Synonymous phrasing?" :-)

You're stating a falsehood that you are unwilling to
retract, even in the face of available, contrary evidence. Is that
clear enough?


Am I to expect Federal Marshalls at my door to "pick me up"
any minute? :-)


Wouldn't it be easier to acknowledge it and apologize to the man?

Paul, all I did was write some words in here...in the same
context as some amateur morsemen love to do...and then you
take that as "a falsehood that you are unwilling to retract"!


Is it true? If not, did you retract it?

Your buttons got pushed. And your "arming switch" was set
to "FIRE!" rather than "Safe." :-)


It looks like you fired.

You're clearly wanting to argue it both ways. You want to make unproven
assertions, then if the accused want to defend themselves and offer
convincing evidence in their defense, you want to admonish them for not
understanding that "this is not a court of law."


This newsgroup is NOT a court of law. Really.

I have since found the specific E-mail message to you, dated January 23
2004, that supports my denial. Do you object to me putting it up
temporarily off of my home page, and posting a link here?


I have no objections. You are welcome to copy Robeson's
short-lived home page of "Never Trust Lennie" if you are
so disturbed by things in here. :-)

[I don't have a copy. Too bad. It was a classic of libel
and outrage by one who could not control himself in here]


Why, Leonard, you have often committed libel and outrage and you are
known to be one who cannot control himself in here!

I can't possibly control the actions of a licensed extra class
radio amateur (20 WPM code test kind), can I?


It isn't likely; you can't even control yourself.

After all,
those licensed extra class radio amateurs who are "participants"
in here can't control the trolls, anony-mousies, sociopaths,
and others (too strange to classify) who post in here. You
expect ME to "control them?" :-)


Your standards swing widely. You have recently expected me to control a
regular poster here. You demanded that I condemn him.


If words are useless in this forum, why do you continue to contribute
many, many such words?
Because I can! :-)

I guess I can't argue with that.


Right! Now you are beginning to see the problem! :-)

This newsgroup has been out of control for a long time.
Anyone can post anything, including someone who forges
your name ".

That's the reason that I recommend Total Dissolution of
this newsgroup. Elimination. For an indefinite period
of time.

I can't make sense of it, but I can't argue with it.


Then you would be a poor choice for moderator. I've had
experience as a BBS public board moderator for several
years. It takes "brass ones" to be polite to everyone
but its the only way to do effective moderation. You
CANNOT be a participant in ANY argumentative subject in
such an environment. That would be subjective bias.
Such as what you want to do in here...


Outside of FCC Comments and Petitions, there are very few UNBIASED
venues for speaking one's mind on any amateur radio policy issues.

Well, at least you're willing to admit that the FCC Comments and
Petitions process is unbiased to submitters.


"Admit?!?" [bad choice of a word, Paul]

I have STATED what I wrote before. The FCC has stated that.
The Communications Act of 1934 that established the FCC must
accept commentary from all citizens on radio regulations,
ALL radio regulations. It is STATED in law.

We have/had some on this
newsgroup that weren't even willing to admit that.


NOT my problem, NOT my words you talk about. "You want to
make unproven assertions, then if the accused want to
defend themselves and ..." Do not blame me for "others
words."


Remember your words. You are very likely to seem them again in the near
future. In fact, you'll see them when you next decide that Jim or I
should be responsible to something Steve Robeson writes.


I found *Herb's* "standards of newsgroup righteousness" to be
arbitrary, and said so.


So noted. Now what, another knock on the door by
"officials" for partially agreeing with him?


Dave Heil is free to chime in again if he feels that I have misquoted
him by my assertion that he agrees with me that Herb was being
disingenuous, and that Herb was not speaking for him.


Heil frequently "chimes in" about others and others'
words, even taking it upon himself to "answer" replies
made to another. He does this mostly to no-code-test
advocates who are replying to amateur extra morsemen.
Google is full of his posts in that manner. QED.


Len, tell us about how this is usenet and that anyone is free to comment
on anything posted here. I really liked that one.

["Chimes?" A whole table full of ringing bells manned
by morsemen ringers...and ding-alingers]


I acknowledge that we have problem users, trolls, etc. on this
newsgroup. I will consult, on an ongoing basis, with newsgroup
participants for *specific* recommendations for actions, such that I am
not contributing to this problem through my inaction.


As I said before this post and in this post, I recommend
Total Dissolution of this newsgroup. For an indefinite
time period. [can't get any more "specific" than that]


You recommend? That's pretty presumptuous of you. You aren't a radio
amateur.




Life Member, IEEE (a professional association with 397

Len, I'm a little confused about some IEEE matters. How do you justify
a number of your posts in light of the IEEE Code of Ethics?

http://www.ieee.org/about/whatis/code.xml

I was puzzled when I read:

7. to seek, accept, and offer honest criticism of technical work, to
acknowledge and correct errors, and to credit properly the
contributions of others;

8. to treat fairly all persons regardless of such factors as race,
religion, gender, disability, age, or national origin;

9. to avoid injuring others, their property, reputation, or employment
by false or malicious action;

Moderated Newsgroup vs. Mailing List (was Gerritsen Sentenced)
 

that I relayed from Telecom Digest back in 2002, and recommended as
useful reading to our proposed moderation team.


Bottom line? Paul wants a "moderated" (translation...Censored) group that
He, Paul will be in total control of.
Yes, as said by another, this proposed group will most likely consist of
Paul and one or two others at most and I predict that the Newsgroup will not
get off the ground.
Paul, do yourself a favor and double check your ego. To be blunt? Nobody
really cares, Paul. Save for yourself.
I suggest you forge ahead with your proposed *moderated* group. Please do
so! Then, after several weeks of nobody joining same, perhaps you will then
come to the stark realization that nobody is interested and that you have no
like-minded disciples.

But of course Paul is already aware of the above and my bet is that Paul
will not proceed with his *moderated* group so as to spare himself any
further embarrassment. Paul's proposal is akin to, I Gave A Party And Nobody
Attended.

Don't give up the concept, Paul. There are many *moderated* forums
worldwide. China has many, as do any number of one horse dictatorships
around the globe. Yours won't be any different.

Looks doable. It appears to me, however, that every posting which gets
through the basic robofilters is approved by a moderator before posting
- is that true?


There's several modes that STUMP can operate in. It can always pass
articles to a moderator for full review. It can also operate against a
white-list of approved users and pass their articles on directly to the
newsgroup without moderator intervention. STUMP has some sanity
checking against forgeries and other inappropriate content, and this can
be reinforced with other mail-filtering front-ends such as Procmail (not
white-listing posts from known open/rogue news sites would be the main
enhancement we would add).

The misc.kids.moderated team figured that if a poster was able to submit
three unique, timely, and on-topic articles that would otherwise be
approved by the moderation team based on other factors like civil tone
and respect for others' opinions, then that person could be trusted to
be white-listed in the future. Of course, there is always the option to
yank that white-listing if there is future misbehavior. White-listed
users would have to identify with what we reasonably believe to be an
unforged "Last Name or Callsign."

Incorrigible users with demonstrated and ongoing records of simply not
being able to respect, or debate fairly with, others could easily be
locked out of the newsgroup. Their articles wouldn't even be considered
by the newsgroup, as they would be bounced back without being viewed by
a moderator. Such permanent blacklisting should only be done in
exceptionally grave cases. We're contemplating starting everyone out
with a "clean" record, then applying a sliding scale of warnings and
temporary bans up to that ultimate penalty based on future behavior.
Specifics will be in the RFD.

And of course, there would be the gray areas such as submitters who can
contribute positively but need every article scrutinized for lapses, new
submitters without an established three-article track record for
white-listing, articles coming through open news servers such as Google
Groups or aioe.org where the source cannot be reasonably authenticated
by automated means, as well as other things that may require moderator
review such as SPAM that got through other filters, off-topic
submissions, etc. These will be directed to a queue for prompt review
by a member of the moderation team. Over time, the gray area should get
smaller and smaller, and thus our workload should reduce.

Which is a working, stable solution used by many other newsgroups we
would like to emulate, such as misc.kids.moderated. As with
misc.kids.moderated, most of the initial configuration work would simply
be figuring out who the white-list, black-list, and manual review
submitters would be, and it will not be necessary to read every article
submitted on an ongoing basis. As a result, we anticipate that the
workload will drop over time.

All of this will be discussed in much more detail in the upcoming RFD.


Thanks for the info!

rebutted his assertion that the "sole purpose" of the newsgroup was to
debate Morse code testing:

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.r...5697020?lnk=st

In addition to the examples I mentioned, probably also the following:

- Where to fold in wider-band digital modes.

- Ongoing FCC attempts at mode-agnostic bandplanning, such as that
put forward in RM 11306.

- How to do this without overruning the amateur radio bands with closed,
proprietary systems being used as telecommunications substitutes, such
as ocean sailors' use of WinLink 2000.

others.

The FCC tells Heil "what to do" and Heil has no choice
but to obey...or lose his precious amateur extra class
license. In any discussion with others about a singular
test to ENTER amateur radio, Heil does not play well and
assumes He can tell others what to do...and does not
hesitate to do so with his typical smug arrogance.

That is NOT a good picture to present to the public about
US amateur radio. But, I doubt that Heil cares. Heil
has His and the rest can go do something else. :-(

OK so far - all ways that reduce the number of posts a moderator has to
read.

It seems to me that such a complex system would be needed for groups
with lots of different contributors. Does rrap really have that many
people reading it?

Regardless of the original purpose of rrap, its charter has broadened
to meet the name "policy"

In addition to the examples I mentioned, probably also the following:

- Where to fold in wider-band digital modes.

- Ongoing FCC attempts at mode-agnostic bandplanning, such as that

Seems the right direction to me.

It also seems to me that such a moderated group could exist in parallel
with rrap as we know it today. Let those who do not want moderation
have their unmoderated forum, and those who can live with the
moderation rules have theirs.

have followed up in this thread. A wider audience than just the trolls
and problem users.


Small Freudian slip there. "Individuals" who you think are
surnamed by call letters are rather blatant pro-morse-code-
test fanatics. The "Old Friend" is also a licensed US
radio amateur but you fail to note his call and name. Mark
Morgan is a no-code-test advocate. See the relationship?


indeed it is telling the deferent way the Techs are treated in the ARS
very telling

indeed edefening one name is all but a crime in his eyes


What did you expect from the Archaic Radiotelegraphy Society
(ARS) ?


I hope the FCC wil soon get of it duff do it job and let Nodocde ars
try to repair the damage of "pur Beters"


The "betters" (amateur extra morsemen) say "it isn't broke, doesn't
need fixing." US amateur radio below 30 MHz seems to be made
for the amateur extra morsemen...natuarlly they don't want a thing
altered in there...they have a "home" at the lower end of all HF
bands, claim they "own" it. At least one thinks he is chief of
Zoning there, gets mad when his comparison to real living is
destroyed. shrug

The FCC has a lot to do with regulating ALL US civil radio. It will
get around to ruling on last year's NPRM when it wants to. We
have to be patient with the FCC. Not to worry, the ARRL and
amateur extra morsemen think they are running US amateur
radio. :-)

If you have "confusion" about it, feel free to write them at:

If your haughtiness has a problem with my PROFESSIONAL

To carry your threat further, I'll remind you that I have negatively
criticized (at times) the President of the United States, the
Vice-President (at his undisclosed location), the Secretary of
State, the FCC, the Department of Defense, FEMA, IRS, NTIA,

Now, if you wish to have me "investigated" for some reason,
feel free to place a single telephone call to "authorities" to
have me "picked up." Your buddie, the USMC Imposter has
threatened that in the past. You HAVE the connections,
don't you? You WERE on the famous "key lists" weren't
you? You ARE very important because you are an amateur

Until then I will remain an independent citizen of the USA, a
veteran of US military service, a commercial radio operator
licensee and will freely engage in the FREEDOMS guaranteed
by the Constitution of the United States, one of those being
FREEDOM of EXPRESSION.

If you don't like that sort of attitude, go back to the Waffen SS
or invoke the famous phrase of the ByteBrothers.

Robesin did.

the same hatred of losing anything and bluffmanship

Heil is fixated on his one-cannot-possibly-talk-about-

You've talked. You've commented to the FCC. You've commented, ranted,
railed and have generally acted like a small child here. What next?

Now the FCC does NOT require any commissioner or staffer
to hold an amateur radio license grant in order to
REGULATE US amateur radio.


No one at any state's DMV needs hold a drivers license. You don't work
at the DMV or the FCC.

Heil's concept of who rules
is faulty.


You don't regulate. You aren't a radio amateur. You have no stake in
amateur radio.

Heil often expresses disdain and contempt for anyone on
the "outside" of amateur radio attempting to "tell radio
amateurs what to do." That is also illogical and faulty
but grounded in extreme emotional territorialism. He
does NOT rule yet pretends to be the ruler in behavior to
others.


I'm fully aware that I don't "rule" amateur radio. I'm fully aware that
the FCC does "rule" amateur radio. I'm fully aware that you aren't the
FCC or a radio amateur.

The FCC tells Heil "what to do" and Heil has no choice
but to obey...or lose his precious amateur extra class
license.


When it comes to amateur radio, you are not bound by FCC regulations
unless you decide to take to the air illegally.

I'm quite happy to observe the regulations governing amateur radio in
this country. I've received not as much as a single warning letter from
the FCC in nearly 43 years.

In any discussion with others about a singular
test to ENTER amateur radio,


You aren't entering amateur radio.

Heil does not play well...


I've encountered no sane person posting here who plays less well with
others than Leonard H. Anderson.

...and
assumes He can tell others what to do...and does not
hesitate to do so with his typical smug arrogance.


Tell you what to do, Len? I've not ordered you to obtain an amateur
radio license or not to obtain an amateur radio license. I've not told
you to comment to the FCC or not to comment to the FCC. If you don't
like my "smug arrogance", change your own tactics.

That is NOT a good picture to present to the public about
US amateur radio. But, I doubt that Heil cares.


Len, why don't you address the IEEE Code of Ethics?

Heil
has His and the rest can go do something else. :-(


Anyone who chooses to obtain an amateur radio license may do so without
any interference from me. You've been braying in this newsgroup for
better than a decade. You have not made an attempt to obtain an amateur
radio license. I had nothing to do with your failure to do so. You're
a victim of inertia.

are NOT something I regulate.

I'm not at all angry. I'm pointing out a fact.


No one at any state's DMV needs hold a drivers license.


WRONG. Driving inspectors MUST hold valid drivers

Great. I'll grant that those administering actual driving tests are
quite likely to need a driving license. Those who work inside, the
clerks who transfer titles, issue licenses and such, don't need such a
license.

You don't work at the DMV or the FCC.


Clear something up for us: Do you REQUIRE that anyone

Clear something up for "us": Do you have anything at all to do with any

A most irrational statement you made.

Here's a plain and simple fact: The FCC does NOT require
any commissioner or staffer to be granted amateur radio
licenses in order to regulated US civil radio. Really.


And? If any of those FCC employees or commissioners want to take part
in amateur radio, they need to obtain a license in the same manner as
anyone else who becomes licenses. Really.


You don't regulate.


Regulate WHAT? There are many many things that I
regularly regulate. :-)


Oh, yes. When a man gets to a certain age, he is likely to need more

US civil radio regulations
are NOT something I regulate.


I thought I said that.

That's right. You have the hang of it. I've not been shut down nor
fined. You, on the other hand, aren't involved in amateur radio.

Leonard.


I've not ordered you to obtain an amateur

Tsk, tsk, tsk. You certainly gone on and on and on and

It is because you'd have radio amateurs believe that an inexperienced
fellow who has never obtained an amateur radio license knows what is
best for amateur radio. Tsk, tsk, poor baby, toad-in-a-hole and Bob's

I've not told

When you aren't braying, you are often to found acting like a horse.
Usually you act like the other end.

You have not made an attempt to obtain an amateur radio license.

terrible insistence that ONLY amateur licensees can
talk about amateur radio!


No temper was exhibited. I made a statement of fact. You've talked
about amateur radio. That doesn't make you a radio amateur.

I had nothing to do with your failure to do so.


"Failure?!?" Tsk, tsk, never tried.


You've expressed a decades-long interest in amateur radio. You told us
that you were going to get an "Extra right out of the box". You have
posted to this newsgroup for better than ten years. You have failed to
obtain an amateur radio license. It doesn't matter if you tried once or
several times and failed or if you failed by never trying.

I've had a Commercial radio operator license since 1956.


You're in the wrong newsgroup. This one concerns amateur radio and Mark
Morgan's fetishes.

Why do you insist I have an AMATEUR license?


I've never insisted that you have to have one. In fact, I rather hope
that you never get one.

Tsk, Heil is exhibiting irrationality again.


If I'd insisted that you obtain an amateur radio license, that might be.
I didn't do so. Your statement is absurd.

Tsk, the Torquemadas are in a conclave now? :-) :-)

Too funny, really...but tragic in the obvious state of
mind of a future newsgroup moderator...and a possible
course of action of future newsgroup "moderation."

Here's a plain and simple fact: Heil, unable to control
hisself, searched and searched for a weapon of anti-morse
destruction and seized the IEEE Code of Conduct...saying
he "addressed it." Not fully, so I merely listed the
IEEE mailing address for his convenience.

David Heil is perfectly free to communicate with the IEEE
and bring his CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT against me to the
attention of the Membership Committee of the IEEE, the
Ethics Committee, whatever IEEE official, other IEEE
members he wants to vent to. So are you. Go ahead.

As I've said, as the IEEE says, it is a Professional
Association. It has no direct bearing on AMATEUR RADIO
other than some of its thousands of members no doubt
do professional work on designing, manufacturing, and
selling of amateur radio equipment. The IEEE makes
available a forwarding alias for e-mail to members and
I use that free service, hence the "signature" I use.
Some have great difficulty with that "signature,"
demanding I either drop it or get an amateur radio
license and use that (as "official?"). Now that
"signature" (or "ID" or just an e-mail address) has
become a Cause Celebre' of yourself and someone who
has an obsession of villifying his newsgroup enemies?

Here's another plain and simple fact: There are dozens
of daily postings by anonymous individuals in THIS
newsgroup spewing hateful filth about others. A simple
search of Google archives will turn up "responsible"
(Ha!) "names" such as "Not Cocksucker Lloyd" and "Billy
****tydrawers" yet THEY are NOT made a target of this
Inquisition into the "Morality" of their postings.
Why IS that? They do not have any identifiable
connection with amateur radio, but you seem to avoid
them in favor of direct (snide) "attacks" on certain
others such as myself. That is hypocrisy in action,
demonstratable in things like the insinuation below:

In your personal,
non-professional life, you feel that it is acceptable
and defensible:


What I do in my "personal, non-professional life" is
none of your concern. Neither you nor David Heil
can control that, modify it, or make judgements on
it leading to cessation of my rights to free speech
as a citizen of the USA and as a military veteran of
the USA. Yet, you actively seek to CONTROL it. Why?
Because you are PERSONALLY upset by my words? You
feel you are such a supreme ruler that you can
CONTROL opposing opinions or wish to delete all
postings which are not to some arbitrary standard of
protocol demanding obediance to some self-righteous
opinions held by a ruling clique?

If you wish to delve into my "personal, non-professional"
life, get together an Investigative Team. You can use
those that Hewlett-Packard did (their business may have
slowed since HP is under investigation and no doubt have
some free time). Feel free to start with my Pastor,
Ralph Midtlyng, at All-Saints Community Church three
blocks away from my house. It is principally a Lutheran
church but does not bar others about their "personal,
non-professional life." [recall that Martin Luther was
no shrinking violet on matters theological?]

Interrogate my immediate neighbors about my "personal,
non-professional life." The Topalians are right across
the street, Hurleys and Brunos on either side, the
Gonzalez family up on the corner. Consult old issues
of Ham Radio for my address; it hasn't changed since
May of '63. Try my city councilmember's office (Wendy
Gruel, real name). Or possibly the Los Angeles Police
Department, Foothill Division. Maybe you can extract
juicy little tidbits of "scandal" to use in here to
actively engage in vituperative attacks who don't fit
your mold? Since you won't find any, feel free to
MANUFACTURE some. Others do it, therefore it is okay?

Yes, I suppose there is some great (grate?) significance
about "personal, non-professional life" that the outraged
wish to use as weapons of anti-morse destruction (see
Heil's vituperation in here) against me. Try my Sex
Life (heterosexual). My wife is also my high school
sweetheart. I would suggest you NOT consult my wife on
"personal, non-professional life" for your own emotional
safety. Her name? Hundreds of our school classmates
know it. Sorry, you'll have to find that out yourself
but your Investigative Team will know the correct
government agency to find that out...and many more items
of "personal, non-professional life" data.

I've tried to help you out here on "personal, non-
professional life" items as a courtesy to your apparent
Inquisition of a single individual. You really can't
ask more than that, can you? :-)

Why do you feel that AMATEUR radio activity is to
be taken the SAME as Professional Activity? Why do
you side with the allegations of "misconduct" in
"personal, non-professional life" by someone who is
a known personal attacker of those he does not like.
Do you wish to add more spotlights to some imagined
"dispute" between a Professional Code of ETHICS, not
"morality?" Make this into a "federal case?" Why?
Personality conflict? My failure to "pop to" and pay
some kind of "respect" you feel "owed" to you? I am
NOT OBLIGATED to do that, except in a few individual's
fantasies or imaginations.

I am NOT OBLIGATED to "pay respect" to some olde-tyme
radio amateur just because they have some federal
license in amateur radio. I was IN radio communications

I lose no privileges whether morse code testing disappears or not.


Then WHY are you so angry and antagonistic to those of
us who want to eliminate the code test?


Dave's not angry. Neither am I.

You sure seem to be angry, Len.

As for "antagaonistic", we're just opposing what we think is a bad
idea. You seem to have a very difficult time with disagreement - your
behavior rapidly deteriorates when someone here disagrees with you.

No harm will come to you if the test is eliminated.


Can you guarantee that, Len? I think not.

The subject of this thread is "Gerritsen Sentenced". Gerritsen is a
former radio amateur who caused harm to many amateurs and others in his
area - jamming their transmissions, tying up repeaters, deliberately
interfering, etc. It took years to get him convicted and sentenced.

Worst of all, he did a lot of damage to the public image of amateur
radio.

Obviously letting someone like Gerritsen get a license in the first
place was a mistake. The testing process did not insure that he would
follow the rules. He obviously did not care about proper behavior on
the air.

One concern many of us have about continued reductions in the license
test requirements - both code and written - is that more folks like
Gerritsen will get licenses and behave as he did.

If changes in the license requirements let in more like him, those of
us who are currently licensed *will* be harmed. Those like you who are
not involved in amateur radio will not be affected.

btw, Len, Gerritsen lived over in Bell, CA, about a half-hour from your
house. He's pretty close to your age, too.

It's interesting that you proposed an age requirement that would ban
anyone under the age of 14 from getting an amateur radio license,
without any examples of problems caused by the licensing of young
people.

Yet the worst amateur radio offender in recent history is pretty close
to *your* age.

You aren't a radio amateur.


True, but what DOES that have to do with talking about
US amateur radio regulations?


You can "talk" all you want, Len. Nobody is saying you shouldn't.

The problem is that you do not deal with disagreement well. You don't
want to discuss, you want to lecture and not have your lectures
examined, criticized, or refuted.

FCC doesn't regulate behavior.


Actually, they do.

You aren't entering amateur radio.


I'm "not"?!?" What do you KNOW what I'm doing? Are you
Claire Voyant in some ham radio column or something?


Back on January 19, 2000, you wrote here that you were "going for Extra
right out of the box". Hasn't happened - in fact, you have not obtained
an amateur radio license of any kind. Almost 8 years and you haven't
taken the first step.

The Technician class license has not required a code test since
February 14, 1991. Almost 16 years and you haven't taken the first
step.

It's a pretty good bet that you're not going to get an amateur radio
license, Len.

I've encountered no sane person posting here who plays less well with
others than Leonard H. Anderson.


Why should anyone presume Len is "sane"?

You have not made an attempt to obtain an amateur radio license.


Now, now, there you go again with your bad temper and
terrible insistence that ONLY amateur licensees can
talk about amateur radio!


You are mistaken, Len. No one is insisting that only licensees can talk
about it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tsk, the Torquemadas are in a conclave now? :-) :-)

Too funny, really...but tragic in the obvious state of
mind of a future newsgroup moderator...and a possible
course of action of future newsgroup "moderation."

Here's a plain and simple fact: Heil, unable to control
hisself, searched and searched for a weapon of anti-morse
destruction and seized the IEEE Code of Conduct...saying
he "addressed it." Not fully, so I merely listed the
IEEE mailing address for his convenience.

David Heil is perfectly free to communicate with the IEEE
and bring his CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT against me to the
attention of the Membership Committee of the IEEE, the
Ethics Committee, whatever IEEE official, other IEEE
members he wants to vent to. So are you. Go ahead.

As I've said, as the IEEE says, it is a Professional
Association. It has no direct bearing on AMATEUR RADIO
other than some of its thousands of members no doubt
do professional work on designing, manufacturing, and
selling of amateur radio equipment. The IEEE makes
available a forwarding alias for e-mail to members and
I use that free service, hence the "signature" I use.
Some have great difficulty with that "signature,"
demanding I either drop it or get an amateur radio
license and use that (as "official?"). Now that
"signature" (or "ID" or just an e-mail address) has
become a Cause Celebre' of yourself and someone who
has an obsession of villifying his newsgroup enemies?

Here's another plain and simple fact: There are dozens
of daily postings by anonymous individuals in THIS
newsgroup spewing hateful filth about others. A simple
search of Google archives will turn up "responsible"
(Ha!) "names" such as "Not Cocksucker Lloyd" and "Billy
****tydrawers" yet THEY are NOT made a target of this
Inquisition into the "Morality" of their postings.
Why IS that? They do not have any identifiable
connection with amateur radio, but you seem to avoid
them in favor of direct (snide) "attacks" on certain
others such as myself. That is hypocrisy in action,
demonstratable in things like the insinuation below:

In your personal,
non-professional life, you feel that it is acceptable
and defensible:


What I do in my "personal, non-professional life" is
none of your concern. Neither you nor David Heil
can control that, modify it, or make judgements on
it leading to cessation of my rights to free speech
as a citizen of the USA and as a military veteran of
the USA. Yet, you actively seek to CONTROL it. Why?
Because you are PERSONALLY upset by my words? You
feel you are such a supreme ruler that you can
CONTROL opposing opinions or wish to delete all
postings which are not to some arbitrary standard of
protocol demanding obediance to some self-righteous
opinions held by a ruling clique?

If you wish to delve into my "personal, non-professional"
life, get together an Investigative Team. You can use
those that Hewlett-Packard did (their business may have
slowed since HP is under investigation and no doubt have
some free time). Feel free to start with my Pastor,
Ralph Midtlyng, at All-Saints Community Church three
blocks away from my house. It is principally a Lutheran
church but does not bar others about their "personal,
non-professional life." [recall that Martin Luther was
no shrinking violet on matters theological?]

Interrogate my immediate neighbors about my "personal,
non-professional life." The Topalians are right across
the street, Hurleys and Brunos on either side, the
Gonzalez family up on the corner. Consult old issues
of Ham Radio for my address; it hasn't changed since
May of '63. Try my city councilmember's office (Wendy
Gruel, real name). Or possibly the Los Angeles Police
Department, Foothill Division. Maybe you can extract
juicy little tidbits of "scandal" to use in here to
actively engage in vituperative attacks who don't fit
your mold? Since you won't find any, feel free to
MANUFACTURE some. Others do it, therefore it is okay?

Yes, I suppose there is some great (grate?) significance
about "personal, non-professional life" that the outraged
wish to use as weapons of anti-morse destruction (see
Heil's vituperation in here) against me. Try my Sex
Life (heterosexual). My wife is also my high school
sweetheart. I would suggest you NOT consult my wife on
"personal, non-professional life" for your own emotional
safety. Her name? Hundreds of our school classmates
know it. Sorry, you'll have to find that out yourself
but your Investigative Team will know the correct
government agency to find that out...and many more items
of "personal, non-professional life" data.

I've tried to help you out here on "personal, non-
professional life" items as a courtesy to your apparent
Inquisition of a single individual. You really can't
ask more than that, can you? :-)

Why do you feel that AMATEUR radio activity is to
be taken the SAME as Professional Activity? Why do
you side with the allegations of "misconduct" in
"personal, non-professional life" by someone who is
a known personal attacker of those he does not like.
Do you wish to add more spotlights to some imagined
"dispute" between a Professional Code of ETHICS, not
"morality?" Make this into a "federal case?" Why?
Personality conflict? My failure to "pop to" and pay
some kind of "respect" you feel "owed" to you? I am
NOT OBLIGATED to do that, except in a few individual's
fantasies or imaginations.

I am NOT OBLIGATED to "pay respect" to some olde-tyme
radio amateur just because they have some federal
license in amateur radio. I was IN radio communications
on HF full-time before some of these self-styled "rulers"
of the amateur waves were born, using techniques that
persist in amateur radio HF communications today. With
the exception of manual radiotelegraphy which wasn't used
a half century ago but persists in the mythical "standards"

I said I addressed the IEEE Code of Ethics? I could have sworn that I
said you had *not* addressed it despite your claim of doing so. I've
controlled myself very well, Len. The sheer length of your post and the
angst contained therein demonstrates that you aren't in control of yourself.

I didn't need to "seize the IEEE Code of Conduct". You post with an
IEEE address. You told us of your membership in the IEEE. The IEEE has
a Code of Ethics. You obviously do not behave in a manner outlined by
that code. Here I thought you were only against the Morse Code.

David Heil is perfectly free to communicate with the IEEE
and bring his CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT against me to the

Then why, pray tell, do you start posting with an IEEE address and

COMMERCIAL license.

Oh, you've noticed, have you?

****tydrawers" yet THEY are NOT made a target of this
Inquisition into the "Morality" of their postings.


The hell they aren't. You aren't paying attention. The individual
posting as "Not Cocksucker Lloyd", "Billy ****tydrawers", "Markie Rapes
(whatever" and many others is, as I've frequently pointed out, noted
sociopath, scofflaw, mental case Roger L. Wiseman AB8MQ, formerly KC8JBO
of Glen Dale, West Virginia--right here in my county. Local law
enforcement personnel are quite aware of him and have had encounters
with him.


Why IS that? They do not have any identifiable
connection with amateur radio, but you seem to avoid
them in favor of direct (snide) "attacks" on certain
others such as myself.


Roger has an identifiable connection with amateur radio. He also
crossposts many of his responses, drawing in others. Pay attention.
His posts do not excuse your posts. After all, he is mentally ill. Are
you claiming a mental exemption?

That is hypocrisy in action,
demonstratable in things like the insinuation below:

In your personal,
non-professional life, you feel that it is acceptable
and defensible:


What I do in my "personal, non-professional life" is

it leading to cessation of my rights to free speech

At ease, Sarge.

1. This isn't a military newsgroup.

2. I am free to make judgments (not judegements) on anything you write here.

3. Nobody has done anything to abrogate your rights to free speech. You
simply don't understand that while you are free to speak or write, no
one must listen. No one must refrain from heckling. No one must agree
with you. No one must show deference to you.

Amateur Radio...flying...model rockets...skateboarding...

There's always ONE putz that wants to ruin things for everyone
else.

Amateur Radio had one and a half...One still doesn't have a

The problem is that you do not deal with disagreement well. You don't

Bingo.

FCC doesn't regulate behavior.


Actually, they do.


Guess Lennie's not been paying attention to all those efforts to
"can" the licenses of persons who have non-radio-related legal issues.

Personally, I think the FCC needs to be put in thier place for
that.

You aren't entering amateur radio.

He can't. He can't retain the knowledge long enough to get to the

exam with him.

The Technician class license has not required a code test since
February 14, 1991. Almost 16 years and you haven't taken the first

It's a pretty good bet that you're not going to get an amateur radio

There is a god.

I've encountered no sane person posting here who plays less well with
others than Leonard H. Anderson.


Why should anyone presume Len is "sane"?


Why should we presume he was talking about himself... OUR "Leonard

Now now Mother Superior, I'm not trying to take away

You ARE going to continue to LECTURE everyone (after telling
them they are "wrong") on the Right and Proper Way of Life
in everything, including history, world affairs, aero-
space, and, especially, the Military!

Go ahead and continue with your "military personnel are
'subsidized' for their service." You've never served,
never volunteered to serve, never took the Oath...yet
you LECTURE everyone on some hilarious "why" of your

Why so long? Weren't there enough David Heils to
handle the task right away?

So, what are YOU doing about it?

Have you Petitioned the FCC for rough, tough Test regulations?
Have you communicated with the VEC QPC? No? Are you still
waiting for someone to "serve you" instead of the other way
around?

Tsk, tsk, starting in with "guilt by association?" :-)

Gerritsen got his ham license under the EXISTING rules,
Jimmy.

Irrational fear of the future, Jimmy?

What have you done about keeping the regulations the
way they were when you were young? What, no Petitions
or Kvetching the QPC?

Ah, yes, you ARE doing the Guilt by Association thing!

BTW, Jimmy, Bell is farther away than what you say...unless
one has a helicopter. :-)

Oh, my, you should have heard me years and years ago when I
was a bachelor...I was propositioning all over the place! :-)
Sometimes it worked! :-)

Go get laid, Jimmy. It will improve your disposition.

Tsk, are you proposing euthanasia or something?

"Never trust anyone over 30?"

No, not that one, you are 20 past the limit...:-)

Did you watch some old rerun of "Logan's Run" on TV?
The stars were all Brits and you love Brits...

How magnanimous of you! :-)

Whatever. :-)

Now now Mother Superior, I'm not trying to take away
your job at the convent school and you can keep your
ruler for spanking the little kiddies.

You ARE going to continue to LECTURE everyone (after telling
them they are "wrong") on the Right and Proper Way of Life
in everything, including history, world affairs, aero-
space, and, especially, the Military!

Go ahead and continue with your "military personnel are
'subsidized' for their service." You've never served,
never volunteered to serve, never took the Oath...yet
you LECTURE everyone on some hilarious "why" of your
words "not being insulting" (they are definitely
insulting to veterans) and supposedly'correct' use
of your words.

Yes. Well, I must have changed my mind. :-)

Did I make some kind of "solemn promise?" Swear to St. Hiram
on a stack of Handbooks?
Tsk, tsk, I took the first step back in infancy. :-)

Now, now, I TOLD you I took the first step way back
in time...in fact before you were conceived. :-)

Am I supposed to attend the Church of St. Hiram and get
converted? Or are you saying I've been ex-communicated? :-)

Guess I'll have to study radio theology some more...like
how one becomes a Priest of the Order of St. Hiram and
promises lifelong devotion to the Church and always,
always fulfilling one's "promises!"

Oh, my, Jimmy want a "sanity clause" in here?

Tsk, tsk, you'll have to wait for Christmas time... :-)

Act nice, "sanity" is making a list, checking it twice.

No? If I believed what you said I would have been a
Val Germann.

Remember to act nice, Jimmy, "sanity clause" is coming to
town in a few months.

Try not to INSULT so many military VETERANS or the military
still serviing.


And, as always to you, ByteBrothers famous phrase invoked!

Well, Len, you've convinced me.

Any doubt I had has vanished.

I'm completely convinced.

That is NOT a good picture to present to the public about
US amateur radio. But, I doubt that Heil cares. Heil
has His and the rest can go do something else. :-(

Hypocrisy in action.

However, Hans Brakob told the Robeswine off several times.
Hans is about the oldest tymest ham in this newsgroup, a
morseman, but one who doesn't think the morse code test
is necessary. Hans earned that right.

The key ingredient is always that morse code test. Anyone
against it are always "wrong" but those for it are always
"right"...in the pro-code-test morsemen's definition of
truth, justice, and the morse way.

Jimmy engages in some kind of weird wordplay wherein he
both manipulates word meanings and loaded "questions"

I stopped by the Armed Forces Career office on the 3rd floor
of the Media City Mall in Burbank, CA, today. It's next to
the 3rd floor entrance to Sears at the south end of the Mall.
Nice place. Very attractive, really. Not busy today. Had
a nice chat with an Army E-5 there. He got some information
(on you-know-who) and we traded a few items of personal info.
He got a kick out of my miniature DD-214 photocopy. [no
background check of me was necessary, Paul Schleck]

You might note that Robesin's QRZ bio has been altered. He
doesn't mention his "USMC career" at all now! Wonder why?

Brian, *you* made the claim. You wrote: "Proof?"

which means you are claiming you have proof of something.

You made the claim - you back it up. Show us where the person in
question:

"said he wanted to destroy the ARS since he couldn't have ham radio his
way."

You said you had proof. This sort of thing is what Usenet archives are
for. If he really wrote something like that, show us where he wrote it.

If you don't, or can't, why should anyone believe your claim? You've
made mistakes here before, like the part about "liberal'" FDR and the
Bonus Marchers, when it was really "conservative" Herbert Hoover who
ordered troops to disperse them. You were wrong about FDR, maybe you're
wrong about the "proof" you claimed.

Telling me "Do your own homework" is a clear indication that you don't
really have any proof, and that you're misquoting a dead person.

Brian Burke, N0IMD, claimed that a now-dead person wrote something.
If the now-dead person wrote what Brian claimed, what's the problem

who wants to demean

....
with HIS "definition" of "pay,"
that of "being subsidized by the taxpayer."


Why do you think the word "subsidized" is demeaning, Len?

I quoted a definition for "subsidy" from the Webster's New Collegiate
Dictionary:

"a grant to a private person or company to assist an enterprise deemed
advantageous to the public"

What is demeaning about that?

"subsidize" is defined in the same book as "to furnish with a subsidy"

Now of course it's clear that someone who is directly employed by the
government is not "a private person or company", so the word doesn't
really apply to anyone who gets a direct government paycheck.

OTOH, governments subsidize all kinds of things. Why do you think the
word "subsidized" is demeaning, Len?

How would that be done, Len? Who has the authority to shut down rrap?
Obviously you do not, because you would have done it by now.

No, wait, that's not right. You don't always do what you say you are
going to do.

Len, if you want rrap to go silent, why don't you lead the way?

Perhaps you want rrap to continue, because without it, you'll not be
able to rant the way you have for the past decade or so.

Nobody will be able to post. Not morsemen,
not no-code-test advocates, not the sociopaths, misfits,
the anony-mousies in here.


Not even you, Len.

I've suggested it to Paul
Schleck twice...but all he wants to do is engaging
me in some "Personal, non-professional life" background

You mean he's pointed out how *your* behavior doesn't meet IEEE
standards....

I see a contradiction, Len.

On the one hand you want rrap shut down.

On the other hand, you don't want a moderated newsgroup, and you attack
the person who wants to set one up.

Sounds like you have issues with control, Len. Self-control, that is.
You realize that your postings are buried in the noise here, but on a
moderated newsgroup they'd not be allowed. You'd have to control your
behavior on a moderated newsgroup, and that's a problem for you.

only has a lag of about 7 years on the long slide of robson


No, Mark. Jimmie was on AOL on one of their ham radio
"discussion" boards (exclusive of Usenet), sounding like
the 120-year-old 1x1 superextra clone of the ARRL,
parroting their phrases like he was a paid PR pro from
Newington on commission. Someone apparently tipped him
off on Usenet back then and he showed up in here. Same
PR phrasing, same braggadoccio about amateur radio as on
AOL's board, same talking-down with smug arrogance
to anyone not embracing Jimmie's vision of the
All-Codah Heaven (but no mention of "virgins").

The Robeswine is a relative latecomer to RRAP, but he
initially came on trying to out-do Chesty Puller, USMC,
but coming out more like Gomer Pyle. The Robeswine must
have spent days collecting all the emotionally-loaded
catch-phrases of the USMC and generally speaking like
left-over sound bites from TV's JAG (now a "defunct"
series).

Jimmy engages in some kind of weird wordplay wherein he
both manipulates word meanings and loaded "questions"
so that he can come back with "you are simply wrong"
to anyone protesting/challenging/saying-an-opposite.

To further that, he feigns some kind of outrage and

Never mind that several hundred have already seen

again on his way being the new Robeson


Jimmie cries out "You have no proof!" when others don't
care to re-argue and re-argue and re-argue old posts by
MISDIRECTION of quoting them. It is like he desperately
must "win" old arguments he never won.

The Robeswine used to do that but lost it a few years
ago, preferring to directly insult his challengers...in
everything from their sexual preferences to practicing
pedophilia to claims of odd anti-patriotism for honoring
deceased members of one's military unit. In addition,
the robeswine pretended to be some kind of "authority"
who could have anyone "picked up" after making a single
telephone call. I'm leaving out the sick desires of
his to "talk" to spouses.

Jimmy never served in any military, never volunteered
for anything in the military or in one of his
governments. Yet, he is a self-righteous "expert"
who wants to demean military that are serving (or
veterans of service) with HIS "definition" of "pay,"
that of "being subsidized by the taxpayer." Jimmy
doesn't give a **** if he insults 99.99% of everyone
else, he MUST insult one who IS a veteran and who is
on his enemies list. Therefore, he exhibits the
same syndrome as that sick robeswine.


With Jimmie it gets WORSE in my opinion. He is so
confused about "service to the country" that he doesn't
hesitate to engage in sick wordplay about servicemenbers
being "subsidized" by taxpayers.

How can OFFERING ONE'S LIFE be "subsidized?!?" That is
implicit in EVERY military servicemember's Oath on first
joining any branch. [in my day it was direct, not
implicit, but I have been "told" that the exact wording
has changed since then] Is that in the Oath spoken by
police, firemen, paramedics, forest service rangers,
jailhouse guards? I've never heard of that, but it might
be so. Just the same, NO police, firemen, etc., ever
have to face artillery, strafing from aircraft, salvos
and torpedoes on open ocean and deliberate open warfare
on land. Jimmie just doesn't understand that. He's
never tried to. He READS about it and then says he
"knows all about it" (and is the "expert" on it).


How many newcomers actually read rrap?


How many *people* actually read rrap?

I see no other choice but the draconian one of simply

it might work


I don't say it will "work." I can't see any other choice.
It doesn't provide a TRUE discussion forum about policy
matters now.

The newsgroup has been infected with a cancerous growth
of filthy sayings by those who truly "can't play well
with others." This cancer has metastasized into most
threads. The newsgroup is already terminal. Parts of it
have already died. It is best to just BURY it and hope
for some "ressurection" much later, perhaps after the FCC
makes some decision on last year's NPRM about eliminating
the code test for amateur licenses.


Proof? W0EX/SK said he wanted to destroy the ARS since he
couldn't have ham radio his way.

Har! Good old "show us the posting" MISDIRECTION. Everyone

That's a constant with Miccolis. Feigned outrage and demand
to "show us the posting." Actually a good ploy to avoid
answering the basic challenge. But, it is old, trite, used
by many since old days of ARPANET and useless as a "reply."


Like Robeswine's present antics, no one said a word...

Anyone who bothers to wade through the mountains of postings and oceans
of words on rrap will see all sorts of things from all sorts of people
on all sides of various issues.

Yup. Someone recently said that service members are subsidized, which
isn't even a RRAP issue.


Now, just WHY would some dumb sonnovasnitch try to insult
about a million members of the United States military?

I don't understand that. It must be some twisted so-and-so
who never volunteered for any military service and thinks
they are so much better than any service person...


I'm going to hold to what I wrote. Every military veteran I
know will agree with me. If some never-serving sonnovawhich
wants to argue that "subsidy" thing they can shove it.

Paul Schleck and the Waffen SS guy can go do ALL the "personal,
non-professional life" background checks on me they want. They
won't turn up anything heroic (no "seven hostile actions"), just
doing my job(s) as best I could, following the rules, getting
paid regularly, never being fired for cause.

From Jimmie Miccolis we don't have enough hints that he DOES
have a "personal, non-professional life" to DO a full back-
ground check. He is proud of doing nothing at work. Hans
Brakob, Phil Kane, Bill Sohl, myself have all said what we
did and what we do for a living. So have others. But not
Jimmie M. All we hear from Jimmie are his amateur radio
adventures. He may have no other life. But, he is THE
'expert' on ALL matters, never ever hesitating to call
others "wrong" when they are in disagreement with him.

Jimmie's latest, his infamous "military persons get
'SUBSIDIZED' by taxpayers" is perhaps his crowning
achievement in looking down at all others. About a
million 'others.' How is a LIFE 'subsidized?'

That is NOT an amateur radio subject, certainly not policy.

Plain and simple fact: It is out of line, INSULTING to
anyone who is or has been in the United States military.

Miccolis won't apologize for that insult. He is always
"right." QED.


You might note that Robesin's QRZ bio has been altered. He
doesn't mention his "USMC career" at all now! Wonder why?
:-)

I just noticed that )having checked on it interesting it still shows
up on his home page


That's how it goes with the robeswine, HIS words are the ONLY
"facts" we can get. NO documented proof from real official
sources, not even a snapshot of him in that alleged 18-year
military career. Just His words.

Heck, Leonard, it should put you at ease. You don't have one either.
Good grief! Did you have to query QRZ on that one, too?
Robesin did.
They are birds of a feather, Brian.

They might share a brain...

At least Heil didn't consume time and resources in a useless exercise
as Robesin has.


I will dispute that. Very little of Heil's messaging in
here appears useful...except to him. It is almost
entirely about demeaning lots of others. He only makes
nice-nice to other pro-coders.


Wowsers, Len. If we change the bit about "pro-coders" to "no-coders",
it fits you to a T.


The only difference
between them is better literacy in Heil's postings. But,
the same hatred of losing anything and bluffmanship
is evident in both.

I see a lot more difference between them than that, but without getting
into a great big ****ing match with either of them, I'll sum it up in
that one of them should be kept away from society, the other is merely
annoying and needs to stick to meaningful exchanges on the air, such as
"you're 59."


Har! Yes, good old "you are 5-9-9!" :-)


Good old Len. Nobody but a rank greenhorn would issue a statement in
morse like "you are 5-9-9". A phone op wouldn't do it at all.

...even if a repeat is requested on half of what the
other station transmitted. :-)


You didn't get the first half right so I have doubts as to your second
statement. After all, you aren't involved and aren't sitting around
monitoring CW QSOs with your trusty Icom receiver.

Have you and Paul had a difficult time on my "personal, non-

I'm not worried. Are you worried that I'm not worried?

Or do you want me to be worried about your being worried
about my not being worried? :-)

So, when are the moderator police going to show up at my
house? I can put on a bigger pot of coffee. Is that a "service"
to the country? Or would you call that a "country crock?"

I think of most of your little endearing messages as a country
crock. Really spreads greasy stuff in here.

The only logical explanation I can see for Brian's refusal is that he
now isn't so sure that his claim is accurate.

who wants to demean

...
with HIS "definition" of "pay,"
that of "being subsidized by the taxpayer."


Why do you think the word "subsidized" is demeaning, Len?

I quoted a definition for "subsidy" from the Webster's New Collegiate
Dictionary:

"a grant to a private person or company to assist an enterprise deemed
advantageous to the public"

What is demeaning about that?

"subsidize" is defined in the same book as "to furnish with a subsidy"

Now of course it's clear that someone who is directly employed by the
government is not "a private person or company", so the word doesn't
really apply to anyone who gets a direct government paycheck.


OTOH, governments subsidize all kinds of things. Why do you think the
word "subsidized" is demeaning, Len?


Len was recently attempting to cast aspersions on my U.S. Department of
State employment so it is interesting to look at the line he spouted:

On Sunday, Sept. 10, 2006 he wrote:

"Tsk, all those years in the State Department (paid for by the
US taxpayer) and he picked up NOTHING on diplomacy."

and

"Tsk, and all those Department of State years and
you never learning any diplomacy skills paid for by the US
taxpayer..."

He didn't write that I was paid by the U.S. Government. He wrote that
my years were paid for by the U.S. taxpayer.


How many newcomers actually read rrap?
How many *people* actually read rrap?
Anymore? None. Today it's just a cesspool for want of an apology.

I see no other choice but the draconian one of simply
stopping everything in the newsgroup for an indefinite
period.


How would that be done, Len? Who has the authority to shut down rrap?
Obviously you do not, because you would have done it by now.


Len thinks he is in charge of the newsgroup now. He is a self-appointed
advocate for something-or-other, dontcha know?

No, wait, that's not right. You don't always do what you say you are
going to do.

Len, if you want rrap to go silent, why don't you lead the way?

Perhaps you want rrap to continue, because without it, you'll not be
able to rant the way you have for the past decade or so.

Nobody will be able to post. Not morsemen,
not no-code-test advocates, not the sociopaths, misfits,
the anony-mousies in here.


Not even you, Len.

I've suggested it to Paul
Schleck twice...but all he wants to do is engaging
me in some "Personal, non-professional life" background
check.


You mean he's pointed out how *your* behavior doesn't meet IEEE
standards....

I see a contradiction, Len.

On the one hand you want rrap shut down.

On the other hand, you don't want a moderated newsgroup, and you attack
the person who wants to set one up.

Sounds like you have issues with control, Len. Self-control, that is.
You realize that your postings are buried in the noise here, but on a
moderated newsgroup they'd not be allowed. You'd have to control your
behavior on a moderated newsgroup, and that's a problem for you.


Problem? He can't control his behavior. He is the way he is.

Proof? W0EX/SK said he wanted to destroy the ARS since he
couldn't have ham radio his way.


When did he say that? Show us the posting where he wrote such a thing.
Do your own homework.


Har! Good old "show us the posting" MISDIRECTION.


How is it misdirection?

Brian Burke, N0IMD, claimed that a now-dead person wrote something.
If the now-dead person wrote what Brian claimed, what's the problem
with asking to see the original?


It simply isn't misdirection. After all, Brian stated something without
proof. You asked to see the proof and Len accused you of misdirection.
The misdirection is Len's.

btw, Len, you don't have to keep trying to convince me. I'm convinced!


I've been convinced for years.

I haven't the slightest idea, Len. Is it your belief that it is still
in existence?

Caps To Begin Words? dOES yOUR kEYBOARD hAVE A sTICKY cAPS kEY?

Have you and Paul had a difficult time on my "personal, non-

Why no, Len. Much of your "personal, non-professional life" can be
found right on usenet. It is plain for anyone to see.

Have you contacted the
Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers yet?


No, not yet.

I gave
you their address.


Why yes, you did. I'd already found it though. It is on the web site.

It's in all the better trade magazines.


I couldn't find it in "Farm Industry News" or "Guitar Player".

I'm not worried. Are you worried that I'm not worried?


Thou dost protest too much.

Moderator police? What are you going on about, Leonard?

Go tell it to Robesin, he desperately needs to hear that.
Fascinating. Miccolis is becoming a clone of Robesin.

only has a lag of about 7 years on the long slide of robson


No, Mark. Jimmie was on AOL on one of their ham radio
"discussion" boards (exclusive of Usenet), sounding like
the 120-year-old 1x1 superextra clone of the ARRL,
parroting their phrases like he was a paid PR pro from
Newington on commission. Someone apparently tipped him
off on Usenet back then and he showed up in here. Same
PR phrasing, same braggadoccio about amateur radio as on
AOL's board, same talking-down with smug arrogance
to anyone not embracing Jimmie's vision of the
All-Codah Heaven (but no mention of "virgins").


Did someone tip you off to amateur radio, Len? You haven't shown up on
the bands yet.


The Robeswine


Who? Is that another of your endearing little names, Len?

is a relative latecomer to RRAP, but he
initially came on trying to out-do Chesty Puller, USMC,
but coming out more like Gomer Pyle. The Robeswine must
have spent days collecting all the emotionally-loaded
catch-phrases of the USMC and generally speaking like
left-over sound bites from TV's JAG (now a "defunct"
series).


Jimmie cries out "You have no proof!" when others don't
care to re-argue and re-argue and re-argue old posts by
MISDIRECTION of quoting them. It is like he desperately
must "win" old arguments he never won.


Your statement above is completely incorrect. Brian Burke asserted that
he was quoting a dead man as saying something that Jim didn't recall the
fellow as writing. Brian was asked to provide proof that his quote was
accurate. He has not done so and now we have you crying, "misdirection".

The Robeswine


Who?

...used to do that but lost it a few years
ago, preferring to directly insult his challengers...in
everything from their sexual preferences...


Is that like "smoking preference"? The fellow with numerous issues
wrote about his sexual desires in another newsgroup. We already know
what they are.


How can OFFERING ONE'S LIFE be "subsidized?!?"


Ask Saddam Hussein. He was in the business of subsidizing the lives of
bombers some years back.

Just the same, NO police, firemen, etc., ever
have to face artillery, strafing from aircraft, salvos
and torpedoes on open ocean and deliberate open warfare
on land. Jimmie just doesn't understand that. He's
never tried to. He READS about it and then says he
"knows all about it" (and is the "expert" on it).


You read about amateur radio and claim to know all about it. You set
yourself up as an expert. Go figure.

Your blurb on artillery reminds me: That sphincter post of yours--where
and when did you undergo the artillery barrage? Was your friend Gene
there to confirm it? Did his sphincter tighten too?
