Actually, Mike, you were correct...So was Brian...Brian uses the

Oh, I missed that. Looks like he he's added a new twist and made it
his own. Probably patentable. Awesome.


Brian, those tongue-in-cheek satiric appelations were justly earned
by all parties. :-)

Actually, "Avenging Angle" applies to nearly all PCTA extras. All
are self-righeously Right even if they aren't in a triangle of being
oh-so-superior to NCTAs. All who don't worship at the Church of
St. Hiram are, to them, heretics and infidels, unworthy of surviving
on the same planet as the PCTA. They are all Right Angles but
perpendicular to the plane of existance of reality of today.

Much earlier in here I'd made mention of one Elfren Saldivar (hope
name is correct), the "Angle of Death" at Glendale Memorial
Hospital in this area. He was a nurse who offed a bunch of
elderly patients "to ease their suffering." Lots of them. Registered
nurse with certificates and everything... Sound familiar? :-)

So...we've got the "forever marine" spending the weekend shouting
epithets using pejoratives not in his ethnic experience, always
being the "avenger" for the "service." We've got the prissy never-
served busy acting like Nun of the Above, rapping the knuckles of
any who don't agree with him (or her). We've got the "forever ham"
of four decades hamming it up into great "superiority" but who
never learned a thing about diplomacy in the State Department
"foreign service." We've got the "university lecturer" who survives
the terrible storms that regularly destroy everything in Hawaii
except the ham rigs and assists other hams in regards to USPS
addresses. We have the coslonaut who wanted hearty
congratulations for a feat he hasn't yet begun but was upset when
he didn't get it. A nice jolly group of down-lookers in their own
PCTA "blog" happily giving each other high-fives for being so
intrinisically superior to all others. The major "superiority" attribute
is cussing out "civilians" not possessing the right ham hobby
papers to show to their raddio kopp schutzstaffel.

They can flog each other in this blog for all I care. [some do]
All their little names are familiar to all who look into this blog.
[it long since dropped out as a discussion place, became a chat
room reserved for their highnesses, a group blog] They've
worked hard at earning all those names and should be proud of
them. :-)

Godwin's observation as the catalyst of their being compared to
the national socialist party of 1930s Germany applies in the truest
form. They gas back and forth so much in the group blog that
they need their own chambers. [again deserved by them]

As to amateur radio policy, only the newsgroup name has any
relevation to "ham radio." They ham it up, not on radio, not on
any "airwaves," only on computers, saved from direct physical
harm through time and distance by insulting all who don't agree
with them. Hear them roar! :-)

Rest of self-appreciating anti-Amateur Radio hatred snipped.

Cute, Lennie, but it still doesn't amke you an "author".

I've not been a ham forever. I've been a ham for over four decades and
I'm not quite 56. If I'd been a ham for two days, I'd be your superior
in amateur radio. You aren't a radio amateur. I learned plenty about
diplomacy in the Foreign Service, not "foreign service" though that was
not my area of expertise. Nothing compels me to suffer rude churls.
Finally, it is not the "State Department 'foreign service'" but the
Foreign Service of the United States. Don't you get anything right?

Why is "university lecturer" in quotes, Leonard? Are you being forced

Aren't you stretching the truth more than a little? Weren't you, in

This isn't a blog, Leonard and no one here has suggested that he is

The major "superiority" attribute
is cussing out "civilians" not possessing the right ham hobby

It isn't that you don't have the right papers, Len. It is that you have
no credentials in amateur radio. You aren't a part of amateur radio.
You play no role in amateur radio. You aren't involved in amateur
radio.
Oh yeah, Godwin invoked.

This isn't a blog and you must certainly care. You've shown up here for

Nope, you have it wrong again. The rest of us may discuss amateur radio
policy here or on the amateur bands. You may not. The rest of us may
discuss anything on the amateur bands. You may not. By the way, did
you mean that if we were in the room with you, we'd be in danger of
direct physical harm? Did you plan to bore us to death?

Since we're on the subject, who on earth would think I was looking for
congratulations on something I hadn't done? That's weird. My ill fated
attempt to garner a few ideas in the group was simply that.

It was a failure in that respect. But as in all things, there is good to
be taken away from it. Just a little personal practice in dealing with
the obtuse or deliberately antagonistic. Those involved may choose which
one they want to be.

And for those who think it was some kind of stupidity to expect
anything other than obtuseness or deliberate antagonism, the chance was
offered to act otherwise. That a person would choose that puts them in
league with the bottom dwellers of the group.

Don't like it? Too bad, deal with it.

Not shot, however the FCC has demonstrated a willingness to seek

Tsk, Tsk, TSK! A "healthcare professional" always wishing an
opponent will die! Not a healthy attitude.

You must be a riot around those in ICU, running around and pinching
the I-V tubes and canulas of all those who don't smile at you...

We'll just put you in the same category as Elfren Saldivar the 2nd.

Let's get something straight, Lennie.

We're NOT "opponents". That would suggest that we were mutual
combatants, equal to the task of said combat.

You are not remotely qualified to engage me on ANY aspect of any
subject except electronics theory, and I've already "given" you that.
But that's where your knowledge and "experience" stop. You've been
disproven on every other rant you've cared to partake in. You look
foolish.

Perhaps YOU fancy yourself an "opponent", but that is all you will
ever do.

You're a liar. You're deceitful. You're a loser.

Sucks to be you.

Putz.

Nope.

But one sure is necessary to be an active Amateur Radio operator,
hence being able to acquire PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE in BEING an Amateur.

all to see.

That's my point, Lennie. You don't have the training.

Tsk, tsk, not all amateur bands are allocated now or in the past

That's not the issue now, is it, Lennie?

The issue is your lack of qualifcations to wield an informed

The statement said that Lennie has a history of taking other
people's work. He proved it in his warping of your "endearment". He
didn't even give you, his one and only NG "buddy", credit for the work.


That single act will cause a rift between Len and me that can never be
healed.


Poor Stebie da Avenging Angle sees only the WRONG in his
opponents. Tsk.


So....What does YOUR lack of publishing credits have to do with
Lennie's irresponsible and unprofessional behaviour.


Everything. Had I been published in a professional journal, can you be
sure that he would have stolen my work?


Brian, you have to realize that any printed article to Stebie is new
to him, therefore everything he reads is a "first principles" topic.
He imagines all those articles are stand-alone and cannot ever be
commented upon...therefore the slightest act of just mentioning
them are what he considers plagiarism. :-)

Coupled with his mindset of "all opponents do wrong in anything,"
he is constantly in outrage that opponents exist.

==========

In printed publications sold all over the USA and worldwide, many
are involved in viewing and checking any submitted work. Every
publisher is subject to copyright laws and prosecution thereof if
court action is taken. Publishers don't want that. Authors don't
want that.

Stebie wants to feed on his perceived "wrongness" of fair-use
mentions or references of other works. That's just ignorance on
his part (or his sense of right/wrong is so warped by hatred of
opponents that he cannot tell which is which)...since fair-use
mentions and references have long been a part of published papers
and articles. [at least over the last century] As to what constitutes
fair-use, that is covered in Copyright Law under Title 17, United
States Code. So is references and mentions of other published
works.

For periodicals, the common convention is for publishers to
request "first rights" as part of compensation of authors. That
means the publishers have "first dibs" on publishing that work and
can reprint that work as many times as they wish. Authors can
publish or get published that same work once the publisher-
puchaser has printed it the first time. There are many variations
on the author compensation and some may include sole
proprietorship of an author's work. [pecuniary compensation falls
under "work for hire" rules by the IRS and is therefore taxable
income...mentioned as a sidelight] Some authors can cut a deal
with publishers so that authors have free rein on republishing, but
that is rare.

What most readers overlook is that a published work can be changed
in many ways. Schematics can be redrawn, diagrams can be done
differently, different accompanying photographs used, and text rewritten.
That changes the nature of the "work." Determination of whether such
work is a "copy" of the original published (and copyrighted) is a very
long, studious, and arduous proceeding (not to mention expensive)
which is hardly ever done. It isn't worthwhile unless it involves millions
of dollars.

The ARRL gets away with a benign sort of plagiarism (but isn't such,
per se) by getting ALL rights to publishing (usually) for article in their
periodicals. They do reprint periodical articles in changed form in
the Handbook and other book-form publications...and the original
author gets NO money under that compensation form...and usually
is uncredited for the work in the ARRL's republishing. That's not a
"slam" at the League but is standard practice by them and has been
so for years. It's business...and worthwhile to them...but seldom so
to the authors.

Do you think Hartley, Pierce, or Colpitts (or their estates) get anything
for all the repeated articles on the whichness of the what in oscillators?
Nothing. Nada. Zip. Yet the articles pop up now and then and are
found in all kinds of electronics texts. Anyone can mention those
names, draw schematics for them, make them, measure them and
it is NOT "plagiarism" to do so...unless such work is a direct copy
of a previously-published article on same.

In tutorial articles, basic circuits can be explained in a number of
ways. Tutorials are far from "first principles" kind of subject and are
done for the benefit of readers who wish to further their knowledge
of a particular subject. Tutorial articles aren't plagiarism of any sort
unless they are an obvious copy of something already published.
Each presentation in a tutorial, the explanations, are unique. The
uniqueness can be copyrighted.

That's the way part of publishing works and it's been that way for
some time. Some hatred-clouded "avengers" want to redefine all
rules on uniqueness or writing skill and say their hate-subject is
a plagiarist. No proof. Just a hollered pejorative by someone who
