Amateur radio newsgrouping IS a GAME to Kolonel Klunk.

The only thing SET is Klunk's way of thinking (inflexible).

There's no MATCH except the lighted one always carried
by Klunk to start another Flame War in here.

Other than that, "Game, Set, Match" are the titles of a
later trilogy by novelist Len Deighton based on a
fictional British intelligence service. [not Deighton's
best work]

I'll just put the PCTAs of the newsgroup in the category
of "no one can join amateur radio unless they are already
IN it..." oxymoronic "brotherhood" of self-righteous
radio poseurs "serving their country" through a HOBBY.

Go out and corner the market on helium for your "reach to
the fringes of outer space," Michael. That's better than
the megacubic feet of Hot Air vented by this "patriot"
who behaves like a miscast stereotype of a Kommandant in
a half-hour TV sitcom about POWs during WW2.

Seig Heil!!! :-)

Yeah, those jerks always invoke Godwin when someone is compared to the
Nazi's. 8^)

I mean like, he was just sayin'!

That's right - every time! Does absolutely no good, but it just has
to be done, I suppose.....

I think the comparison in question was to the bumbling TV 'Nazis' on
"Hogan's Heroes", not the 'real' ones - but hey, Godwin must be
appeased... And as usual, the OC was right there as predicted!

"attempt"? Hardly!

Len used the following phrases in reference to K8MN:

"Kolonel Klunk"

"Klunk's way of thinking"

"the lighted one always carried by Klunk

"That's better than the megacubic feet of Hot Air vented by this
"patriot" who behaves like a miscast stereotype of a Kommandant in a
half-hour TV sitcom about POWs during WW2."


"Seig Heil!!! :-)"

If that isn't a clear Godwin example, nothing is.

Or do you think the one smiley makes all of Len's
verbiage somehow acceptable behavior?

Attempt, definitely. Because, as has been demonstrated many times
before, the discusion will continue regardless of whether Godwin's
impotent rule has been 'invoked' or not.

But it just had to be done, didn't it?

It's what you do! Point out the obvious, that is.

The version of Godwin's rule that I use says that the person
who uses stoops to calling their opponent "Hitler", "Nazis"
or references to them, has lost the argument. That the discussion
continues is irrelevant. Len has lost the argument.

But it just had to be done, didn't it?

No, it didn't. But I did it anyway. Is there a problem with
that? Do you think Len's slurs are acceptable behavior?

I see. Thanks for clearing that up, Jim - for a minute there, I was
afraid that you hadn't accomplished anything useful there!

Of course you did. You had to!

There are several folks here whose 'slurs' and language are much worse
than this example (a reference to the bumbling and comical 'Nazis' on
"Hogan's Heroes") - always has been, always will be. It's not my job
to run around and point that out all day every day.

It's not my job to point that out to each and every participant on
this group Jim - is it yours? Why?
