There's not a serious word come from Lennie is 8 years. Why would he start today? Steve, K4YZ |

No, it's not, Brian. I warned you where YOUR conduct would take us two weeks ago. You drove right on in. "It's your world, Boss". All I ask is that people be truthful and take responsibility for thier actions like the rest of us do. To acknowledge their errors when those errors have been shown and proven to BE errors. You and Lennie think it's OK to lie and be deceitful in public. I say that's not civil. You say I'm nuts for pointing out that you are liars. I may be "nuts" for being as persistent as I am, but that still doesn't diminish the fact that you and Lennie are liars. It really is THAT simple. Steve, K4YZ |
"Amateur Radio POLICY," Hiram will say a Hail Mary for you and mail a
certificate. But...is it suitable for framing? :-) What do you say we start a Morse Code Exam policy thread? Nevah hoppen, GI ! :-) This newsgroup is the PCTA extra's Chat Room where they can all talk about what's on their minds and express all their hatred and frustration against those against the morse code test. NO dissention is allowed. If dissention with the established tradition and trappings of the Church of St. Hiram show up, all dissenters will be harrassed, hounded, and haunted by the PCTA extras. The judge roy bean of the newsgroup has SPOKEN! Isn't he the hanging judge? Definitely full of beans. He wants to hang them high...and often. :-) "Full of beans?" The flatulence from him is awful! I get it. You were funnin about listening and obeying. The PCTA extras don't get it. [they never had it... :-) ] |

Coslonaut wants so much to be an olde-tymer he'll even refer to himself as an "extra lite" to show his sycophantsies (e.g. synchronous fantasies). I didn't notice that in the original post. What a very, very odd thing to type.......... It is the latest in a very long string of very odd things which Leonard has typed. One of the first times I have been accused of trying to impress others. Go figure. Mostly I just irritate others. Mike, Mike, Mike. You have a callsign. You're guilty of trying to impress Len. Heck, I've had it all wrong, Dave. I thought having a callsign *offended* him! Maybe he's right and I am a little dull... Trying to impress him offends him. That would, in Len-speak, make you "overly-proud". Next thing you know, Len'll be picturing you in an invisible Waffen SS uniform and his thoughts will drift to having you punish him. It gets really strange *after* that. What about the Putzmeister ISN'T "strange", Dave? He's an ex-radio technician (wannabe engineer) who can't pass a radio exam. He embellished his military "career" with tales of derring-do of guys who were KIA 3 years before he was even inducted. (And let us not forget the "hair raising" tale of "incomming artillery" and how he served "under the threat to the Soviet Bear" even though that "Bear" was still being manufactured!) He makes up stories about the alleged "dishonesty" of ARRL board members then doesn't provide a lick of evidence. He's quick to tell everyone else what they "are" or "aren't", yet isn't any of those things either. He cries "foul" over having been challenged in the eyes of the FCC, yet has spammed ECFS with almost 2 dozen "he's not objective because..." "rebuttals" of licensed Amateurs with decades of experience. He claims he can operate "anywhere" with his GROL, but can't stand it when it's pointed out to him that his GROL SPECIFICALLY restrains his "operating privileges". He was never "published" in a professional journal and was part of an Amateur Radio journal that went belly-up with him as part of the "Editorial Staff". He routinely makes glaring errors of fact and practice in Amateur policy... Could it be cuz he has no practical experience in Amateur matters...?!?! Me thinks so! 73 Steve, K4YZ |

It gets really strange *after* that. What about the Putzmeister ISN'T "strange", Dave? After reading his output here for nearly a decade, I can honestly answer that I don't see much. He recently wrote about "marching to a different drummer". Well, he's the kind of guy who marches in a parade with 150 others and shouts at them that *they're all out of step* with him. He's an ex-radio technician (wannabe engineer) who can't pass a radio exam. Be fair, Steve. Len might be able to pass an exam. He might not. He might not be able to pass a morse exam at this point. Len has told us of a decades-long interest in amateur radio. He has told us about getting an "Extra right out of the box". He has also told us that he has no interest in obtaining an amateur radio license. In short, it really doesn't matter what Len could or could not do. The chances of him even making an attempt are quite small. He embellished his military "career" with tales of derring-do of guys who were KIA 3 years before he was even inducted. (And let us not forget the "hair raising" tale of "incomming artillery" and how he served "under the threat to the Soviet Bear" even though that "Bear" was still being manufactured!) Len is big on wrapping himself in patriotic bunting. You'll note that when I wrote "Vietnam combat veteran" very recently, Len's response was "COMBAT!?" He makes up stories about the alleged "dishonesty" of ARRL board members then doesn't provide a lick of evidence. As you've no doubt seen, Len can't answer a question with a straight answer. He's quick to tell everyone else what they "are" or "aren't", yet isn't any of those things either. No, he's not. One of the things he isn't happens to be a radio amateur. In that, he's an odd man out. At very least, he's an odd man. He cries "foul" over having been challenged in the eyes of the FCC, yet has spammed ECFS with almost 2 dozen "he's not objective because..." "rebuttals" of licensed Amateurs with decades of experience. I'm telling you, Steve, he has to have been the subject of discussion at the Commission on one or more occasions. He claims he can operate "anywhere" with his GROL, but can't stand it when it's pointed out to him that his GROL SPECIFICALLY restrains his "operating privileges". What's the diff? His commercial license has nothing to do with amateur radio. He was never "published" in a professional journal and was part of an Amateur Radio journal that went belly-up with him as part of the "Editorial Staff". I don't think it likely that Len's presence had anything to do with "Ham Radio" ceasing publication. I went through some of my back issues and viewed some of Len's material. None of his articles were construction articles. None were interesting enough to me to have read them when first published. None interested me enough to read them through when I saw them recently. I saw them as stuff to be skipped between amplifier or antenna articles. He routinely makes glaring errors of fact and practice in Amateur policy... He does get quite a number of things partially or completely wrong. Then again, he has no background in amateur radio. Could it be cuz he has no practical experience in Amateur matters...?!?! Oh, I think Len has plenty of experience in amateur matters, just not amateur radio matters. Dave K8MN |

But it really is what he's NOT about...As in "not about to do any of the things he said he would..." He embellished his military "career" with tales of derring-do of guys who were KIA 3 years before he was even inducted. (And let us not forget the "hair raising" tale of "incomming artillery" and how he served "under the threat to the Soviet Bear" even though that "Bear" was still being manufactured!) Len is big on wrapping himself in patriotic bunting. You'll note that when I wrote "Vietnam combat veteran" very recently, Len's response was "COMBAT!?" I am sure Lennie's sole exposure to "combat" has been ducking a rolling pin by Mrs Lennie. Or dragging himself back to the barracks via the benjo ditches after a night of revelry in post-war rear-area Japan...Had to be a LOT of celebrating that they weren't the unlucky schmucks in Korea. He's quick to tell everyone else what they "are" or "aren't", yet isn't any of those things either. No, he's not. One of the things he isn't happens to be a radio amateur. In that, he's an odd man out. At very least, he's an odd man. Hear Hear! He cries "foul" over having been challenged in the eyes of the FCC, yet has spammed ECFS with almost 2 dozen "he's not objective because..." "rebuttals" of licensed Amateurs with decades of experience. I'm telling you, Steve, he has to have been the subject of discussion at the Commission on one or more occasions. "Discussion", or ribauld laughter? He claims he can operate "anywhere" with his GROL, but can't stand it when it's pointed out to him that his GROL SPECIFICALLY restrains his "operating privileges". What's the diff? His commercial license has nothing to do with amateur radio. Too true. Nor does his Army experience, his "aerospace" career, or his labours at a plastic model company. But we hear a LOT about those... He was never "published" in a professional journal and was part of an Amateur Radio journal that went belly-up with him as part of the "Editorial Staff". I don't think it likely that Len's presence had anything to do with "Ham Radio" ceasing publication. I went through some of my back issues and viewed some of Len's material. None of his articles were construction articles. None were interesting enough to me to have read them when first published. None interested me enough to read them through when I saw them recently. I saw them as stuff to be skipped between amplifier or antenna articles. I bought a couple copies of "HR" for .20c a copy at a flea market just to read his articles. Flighty stuff. Impractical. And after five years of asking him to do so, he's not provided a single instance of where his "theoretical" dissertations were part or parcel to any "real" project. Not a one. He routinely makes glaring errors of fact and practice in Amateur policy... He does get quite a number of things partially or completely wrong. Then again, he has no background in amateur radio. Could it be cuz he has no practical experience in Amateur matters...?!?! Oh, I think Len has plenty of experience in amateur matters, just not amateur radio matters. VERY amateurish, I'd say... 73 Steve, K4YZ |
