I think Grandpa Lennie is simply jealous of the fact that due to his waiting
54 years to get an amateur radio license -- and the fact that the actuarial
tables state he probably doesn't have 15 years left -- he will be unable to
accumulate 230k+ QSOs that others accumulated here have.

Not to mention club call signs... ?He's way, way, way behind the power

You'll never see Jim or Dave point that out.

They don't get out at all. *Maybe they should try a trade show (no,

That might be pointless. What could they trade? Old log books?

I know a couple logging companies. Those keep books on
their logging business. Not quite the same.

No career? *They'd be perfect for an ARRL office; no conflict of

Oh, I think there is plenty of conflict. Like with the folks they
want to officiate. Those don't take kindly to having a few tell
the many what they should be doing... :-)
