You attempt the argument that amateur radio has always been a
ridiculous cost for nothing--well, perhaps you are correct... time to
increase our numbers to a meaningful number...

This statement makes no sense whatever.

I have asked the young men why they have no interest in getting a
ham license, it is because of the limitations placed on the no code
license--and the fact they are not interested in learning code to
chat with someone DX--a task which can be accomplished much easier
and reliably over the net with instant messaging, IRC chat, etc...
that is REAL. THAT is dropping the numbers of hams and putting
bands in danger of being lost... that is holding our numbers at
such low levels the FCC begins to find us more a bother than
anything else...


This does NOT make sense when our numbers are near their all time
high.
