From the ARRL webpage: (www.arrl.org)
Amateur Radio to Have Role in Largest-Ever Mass Casualty Exercise NEWINGTON, CT, Mar 21, 2005--Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) members in Connecticut, New Jersey and several other states in the Northeastern US are preparing to take part in what's being characterized as the most comprehensive terrorism response exercise ever conducted in the US. Sponsored by the US Department of Homeland Security and intended as a realistic test of the nation's homeland security system, the exercise--TOPOFF 3--gets under way Monday, April 4, and continues through the week. SNIP As usual...rants derailed by facts. 73 Steve, K4YZ |

(1) Notice the title..."Guess The Government Isn't Paying Attention to Lennie?"...?!?! (2) "Sponsored by the US Department of Homeland Security and intended as a realistic test of the nation's homeland security system..."(SNIP) See...?!?! You screwed up...AGAIN. And you're absolutely right about Lennie...No meniton of him... However HIS rants in this forum as to how unimportant Amateur Radio is and how we "self-glorify" ourselves are numerous and well known. The news release was absolutely proof positive that Lennie's assessments of Amateur Radio's disaster related services are unfounded and, to say teh least, inaccurate. Just like I said. As usual, rants derailed by facts. You're absolutely right...And you did it to yourself... "Hi!" Steve, K4YZ |

The Dept of Homeland Security didn't mention Len either. And you're absolutely right about Lennie...No meniton of him... Right again. However HIS rants in this forum as to how unimportant Amateur Radio is and how we "self-glorify" ourselves are numerous and well known. The importance of amateur radio is easily overblown. The utility of amateur radio in emergencies is entirely dependent on mostly aging men, who may or may not be available to assist in emergencies. For example, you have the rickyranger kind of guys who volunteer for ARES, MARS, Red Cross, CAP, and probably other acronyms that he has yet to reveal to the group, yet have primary responsibilities as an emergency room nurse. So when the emergency happens, ARES, MARS and CAP are left hanging. The news release was absolutely proof positive that Lennie's assessments of Amateur Radio's disaster related services are unfounded and, to say teh least, inaccurate. Not entirely. It is situationally dependent. Just like I said. I forgot. You're always right. As usual, rants derailed by facts. You're absolutely right...And you did it to yourself... "Hi!" Steve, K4YZ This isn't about me. |

And you've still not picked up (or are ignoring due to extreme mebarrassment) that your attempt to defeat the post was derailed on your lack of accuracy.

However HIS rants in this forum as to how unimportant Amateur Radio is and how we "self-glorify" ourselves are numerous and well known. The importance of amateur radio is easily overblown. To whom? The governmental agencies who still spend a lot of time and money making sure they have Amateur Radio assets in thier facilities, or the disaster relief agencies that still call on them in a wide range of natural and man-made disasters...??? The utility of amateur radio in emergencies is entirely dependent on mostly aging men, who may or may not be available to assist in emergencies. "Entirely dependent"...?!?! Brian, I'll give you a big hint here...Your mouth is over-running your common sense again. Also...I D E M A N D that you cite even ONE instance wherein ARES, RACES, etc, did NOT respond because they were "...entirely dependent on mostly aging men who may or may not be available to assist in emergencies"... For example, you have the rickyranger kind of guys who volunteer for ARES, MARS, Red Cross, CAP, and probably other acronyms that he has yet to reveal to the group, yet have primary responsibilities as an emergency room nurse. So when the emergency happens, ARES, MARS and CAP are left hanging. Nice try... Your "one example" of one persson who MAY not be able to respond is irrelevent. Even with my "duties" here I STILL manage to spend time for both CAP AND ARES. The F A C T S remain that ARES and other Amateur Radio related response organizations ARE still "in the que" as far as Homeland Defense, The Red Cross, etc etc etc are concerned. That's not "overblown". It's the truth. The news release was absolutely proof positive that Lennie's assessments of Amateur Radio's disaster related services are unfounded and, to say the least, inaccurate. Not entirely. It is situationally dependent. No, it's not. Neither you or Lennie can produce ONE example of ANY situation in which ARES or any other Amateur Radio organization did not/could not respond. Just like I said. I forgot. You're always right. Not always. Just most of the time when it comes to anything dealing with you...Like right now... As usual, rants derailed by facts. You're absolutely right...And you did it to yourself... "Hi!" Steve, K4YZ This isn't about me. Sure it is. YOU made even MORE assinine assertions that were, on immediate inspection, flawed and inaccurate. Sucks to be you, Brain. Steve, K4YZ |

You're an abusive jerk, have been for as long as you've been on RRAP, and aren't likely to change anytime soon. Best of Luck. |

Of course you don't. You can't.

You're an abusive jerk, have been for as long as you've been on RRAP, and aren't likely to change anytime soon. If by that you meant that I refuse to tolerate your lies, permit yuor misrepresentations, and expect YOU to live up to the same "standards" that you and Lennie would seek to impose on everyone else, Thanks. Best of Luck. No luck needed when dealing with you, Brain...You make this all too easy. Steve, K4YZ |
