I particularly love that last paragraph .. they're finally moving from
the past into, at least, the present.

hmmm, yes, but the PCTA's won't see it as being noteworthy or
deserving of consideration. They'll dismiss it, say THAT body of
people is ignorant and just doesn't know what's right....

prepared to meet the challenges and demands of the future?!?!?!?!"

Well, Clint, you said it, not me! I'm glad you're starting to see the light!

I, I see your point.
I will be the absolute BEST driver of a modern internal combustion engine-
driven automobile if I first take a blacksmith's apprenticeship and learn
to shoe a horse.

Yes. Quite logical.

Well, Clint, that kind of cynicism may seem to be amusing to some, but
just goes to demonstrate a lack of any truly logical argument which
supports your position. Therefore, it, and you, are easily dismissed.

I don't know about you, Larry, but I like to know a lot about
everything I do. That goes for cars, amateur radio, computers,
housework, history, or whatever. I suspect you feel at least somewhat
this way too. Strange that there is a whole culture built up that
celebrates ignorance.

That's why if my car breaks down on the road, I stand a good chance of
getting it running again, why I know it isn't likely the F.C.C. won't
test me on the design of a 1/4 wave dipole, and why I knew that there
wasn't any special callsigns for non-coded amateurs.

Not that I don't make mistakes, but I don't come into newsgroups acting
as if I know everything either! 8^)

Just thought I'd add my two cents worth to the subject....It's about
time the FCC eradicated this ancient mode of communicaton. The FEDS
even stopped using it...Time for Amateur Radio to do the same!

Frank:

Sooo, it's not enough for code testing to be eliminated, you want to
see the abolition of the Morse/CW *mode* as well. Well, take a deep
breath and hold it...
