I share your pain, Carl. I've often thought of my wasted years, not being in the House of Representatives. I just cannot grasp how otherwise (presumably at least reasonably) intelligent people can cling to insistence on the acquisition of such a mechanical skill in such a quasi-religious fashion. I understand your inability to grasp the situation...in a quasi-sarcastic way. It's about as ridiculous as asserting that all hams should be tested for their ability to hop on one foot, while patting themselves on the head with their left hands and talking on an HT with their right hands at the same time without losing their balance. Some folks could do it easily, some with more difficulty, and some would probably fall over. Insisting on Morse skill for to obtain what are for the most part TOTALLY UNRELATED privileges is absurd ... there is no other way to describe it. Which mode is it that involves that hopping, patting and HT's? Sounds to me like he's spreading a bit of spectrum |
