Riiiight...I can just see a Billion-dollar tourist industry "relying" on ham
radio in Times of Troubles to keep their many lines of communications
going during all those natural disasters that beset the Islands all the
time. Riiiight...and there's no military on the Islands other than the
USCG...not even the USARPAC with their Army callsign ADA. :-)


Well Hawaii did get hit by a big hurricane about 10 years ago.
Some of the smaller islands took it the hardest, and hams
on 2 meters were the only surviving communications for a
short while. Between islands. Doesn't happen every day though....

Heck, I'll even set up an online course just for you, for free. I'd
be interested in seeing if you could pass such a class. How about it,
Len? Do you think you could handle calculus? We could post your
homework and exam scores here on the NG to show everyone how smart
you are.

LenOver will spin-cycle awhile b4 answering.

Anonymous Man of Cancer, I answered that with the following post
on 11 January 2005 -

My offer above of providing you a free online calculus course
was made this morning, 13 January. You're caught again in another
cover up.

This one will go down in the RRAP history books: Len answering a 1/13
post on 1/11.

I've set the expiration date of this article for 2007 so that folks
can enjoy seeing Len humiliated for a couple of years.

Now Jeff! You KNOW that Lennie gives us PLENTY of stuff with which
to humiliate him over!

We are still having a pretty good giggle over his NG faux pas over
license expirations and the subsequent attempts to wriggle out from
under it. Wudda been a lot easier (and would have garnered some
respect) to just say "Ooopsss....I was wrong."

But...You know how it is for pathological liars...gotta lie for
lying's sake!

Well you get on with what you have to get on with and win football games

Tsk. Hannibal, you've stuck your pigskin in the wrong aperture
again. [try a little cilantro...]


Same applies to all facets of life I suppose.

Just get on with the Morse code and win HF privileges

Tsk, tsk. Only if one is an AMATEUR and too afraid to attempt
changing the law...and defying the Great Gods of Newington's
BoD. :-)


Doesn't make any difference whether the code is outdated or whatever -- it
is the requirement

Oh, my...such a "superior" mind you have, Hannibal!

IT'S THE LAW! IT'S THE LAW! :-)

Poor feller bin too busy dining on his ego so long he forgot that
folkses can CHANGE THE LAW!!!

Maybe his thinking (such that it was) was distracted by hearing
that "superiors" can work Frenchmen out of band? We should all
cut slack...he be afraid to show his real name or callsign (if he has
one) and must use the "courage" of a pseudonym.

I love those reasoned and thinking responses on subjects...too
bad there aren't any.

Reminds me of the time a RRAPper said that "MARS IS Amateur
Radio."

Am I wrong?
