Oh no!!! Better get them ham recruiters out to those high-schools and
colleges and uni-varsities..... gotta sign them up young ya know.....
can't have them becoming professionals until after they pass through
the amateur ranks!!!!

At first the law professors at the universities tried to stop campus
recruiting, but the Supreme Court told them that they took federal
dollars, so must allow fed recruiting.

Which law professors at which universities?

The ones being interviewed on NPR, whining and crying and wringing
"thier" hands.

Brian and Frank;

This is getting to be a fun thread. Anal-retentive morsemen
NOT understanding, let alone recognizing, SATIRE!

And for which war?

The recruitment of hams on High School and College campuses.
Everyone's upset about it.

:-)

I'm surprised Jimmie hasn't pulled out the old league
wartime factoids about hams serving in WW2...not
understanding what this sub-thread is about...

Then the law professors decided to use freedom of speech to
anti-recruit on campuses, "Hell No, We Won't Go!".

Was that not allowed? Must all citizens support all war efforts
supported by The President, regardless of their consciences,
and regardless of the facts?

Fortunately for you, those that served protect the freedoms of those
that seved in other ways, or say they served in other ways, or didn't
serve at all.

Jimmie is busy, busy "serving" on keeping the code test
forever and ever, perhaps using "CW" as a "weapon against
terrorists" in our "war on terror!"

Yawn...

He's pulled out the wrenchy fong, hit the moving parts with 3in1 oil,
and is polishing it with a soft cloth.

I see him in a different role. In a Safety Yellow colored vest with
N2EY stencilled on the right side of his chest, a peace sign on the
left, and "Emergency Services" on the back, bullhorn in hand, I
envision Jim on College Campi, shouting down the ham recruiters,
decrying the unjustness of recruiting practices that target young
people, people barely old enough to serve in other ways, having to
forego a lucrative careers in engjneering and technology, and instead
serve "thier" country in a worthless endeavor. It's all soooo wrong.
Prolly smokin a doobie afterwards with John Foggerty playing "Fortunate
Son" in the background.

The NPR reporters gather around to interview this oh-so-wise
anti-recruiting patriot.

Pffffft.

Depends on who the "anyone" is. Some people know

I'm going to guess that within
moments of turning 18, he was attending college in Canada.

Your guess is way off. I've never attended college outside the
USA.

Ever been to Canada? Ever lived abroad?

Welp, Jim, I thought you were covertly trying to get us to find your
"service in other ways." So I went to the Medal of Honor website and
searched "Miccolis."

This kind of reminds me of the time that Dave was desperately trying to
get me to see that he was an A-1 Operator, except, unlike Dave actually
being listed in the A-1Operator list, you are not mentioned on the
Medal of Honor list.

Mark,

Who says "len" is not allowed to count the number of

Jim, I put on my thnking cap, reread Marks new thread subject, and his
question in the body of his post, and nowhere do I see words to the
effect, "Who says "len" is not allowed to count the number of current,
unexpired amateur radio licenses held by individuals?"

Why do you change the context of Mark's question?

Who says he can't post it here?

That question was not asked either. Marks speaks on "unsupervised
counting."

Why do you change the context of Mark's question?

Not me.

Yes you. You protest "unsupervised counting."

I seem to recall that incident. It followed one of your posts where you
named all of the regulars who were *not* A-1 Ops. You looked pretty
silly that time too.
