There's NO such member at the IEEE. IEEE is a worldwide
professional association. I first joined them in 1973
and am a Life Member. You can check that in the annual
Membership Directory.

retired (from regular hours) electronic engineer person

Retired from what he alledges to have been an engineering
career...

Feel free to query the Personnel departments of:
Rocketdyne Division of Boeing Aircraft (when it was
a Division of Rockwell International), Teledyne
Electronics (Newbury Park, CA), Hughes Aircraft
Corporation (now owned by Ford? see ElSegundo radar
and Canoga Park missle divisions), RCA Corporation
EASD (now owned by General Electric), Electro-
Optical Systems (Pasadena, a division of Xerox
Corporation).

That goes back 40 years. I didn't list Micro-
Radionics since they got purchased by Systron-
Donner which was later purchased by another
corporation with the original MRI group moved
from its Van Nuys, CA, building. Same with
Birtcher Corporation bailing out of a competitive
electronics market and into building management.

I left the RCA/GE Retirement Plan in favor of a
lump sum dispersal a couple years ago, worked out
well for me financially; still getting rebates
from our joint tax returns.

Mentioning the part-time job as Associate Editor
(as well as frequent contributor to Ham Radio
Magazine seems to be a sore point with you. Too
bad, but you can still get ALL the articles they
published over their 22-year life from CQ or ARRL
for $150 the set of three CDs (shipping extra if
ordered by mail). Since you don't do any computer
hobby activities, you wouldn't be interested in
my articles in BYTE, Micro, or CALL-A.P.P.L.E
publications; ELECTRONICS magazine, a bi-weekly
published by McGraw-Hill changed into four
separate marketing type periodicals. The old
Hewlett-Packard (calculator) Software Library is
long gone so you can't check there...although at
least one program submittal was in the Top 10
requested programs for months.

Now full time newsgroup insulting.

Tsk, tsk. You mean like calling others "PUTZ"
or "LIAR" or "DECEITFUL?" I don't think I've
done that. Seems to me that little STEVIE does
that on a regular basis!

Sunnuvagun! (as Hans likes to say...)

Poor Stevie, you HAD to comment on "alledged." Tsk.
