More correctly, most amateur radio operators, the ARRL, the FCC and most
of the public think that certain things shouldn't air. Your choice: To
air or to err.

Amateur's who can't see the facts are blind by their own
stupidity.

People who can't spell or construct a sentence should be wary of calling
others "stupid".

Amateur radio is going to die, regardless to what anyone think.

That's your rant and you're sticking with it, despite what the facts
say.

The
reason amateur radio is going to die is because Amateur radio has nothing to
offer.

There are thousands and thousands who disagree with you, Todd. Maybe
what you really mean is that amateur radio has nothing to offer you.
Feel free to move on. Find another interest.

The FCC can change the system to where all a person has to do is
apply for a license and pay a fee but THAT will not save ham radio unless
amateur radio has something to offer. The point of this paper is that
amateur operators are going to have to get their heads out of their asses
and realize they are going to have to compete against the other service like
the internet.

I find it difficult to carry on a discussion with one who feels that
because his cranium is inserted into his rectum, everyone else is in the
same fix.

Every few months, some boy genius like you shows up in one of the
amateur radio newsgroups like a shooting star, only to burn up on enty
into Earth's atmosphere.
