A one-page scrawled hand-printed and very shaky written name
signature dated (by the sender) as 31 July 2005, a Sunday. No
doubt that Sunday featured some slightly excessive imbibing prior
to scrawling this magnificent missive.

The sender is age 46 with address given as Mount Prospect, IL,
Cook County (Chicago is in Cook County). Not exactly near Indian
Territories...perhaps he just got his reservations cancelled and
is feeling angry? :-)

Tsk, tsk, tsk...all you ARRL-fearing, morse-loving EXTRAS ought
to feel sooooo PROUD to have one of your BRETHERN demonstrate
their innate "superiority" in communicating their thoughts!
Not to worry. The rest of you EXTRA morsemen can go right on
making Oh So Much FUN out of all those "not like your noble-
nesses" and picking on all with disabilities.

Len, we could apply the null hypothesis. It could have been a
disgruntled NCTA trying to make the PCTA look bad. But there's two
problems with that hypothesis:

a. The NCTA have nothing to be disgruntled about except a quarter
century of arbitrary and unnecessary government regulation, and

b. The PCTA make themselves look bad without any help.

Even my non Ham freinds have noticed the improvement in my often

and dared asked me to explain

that and I have have found myself breaking into song on the repeater
stuff like that

OTOH they do even better by just making em SEE happy folks

Stop right there. Even the slightest upturn at the corner of your
mouth might be mistaken as gloating.

They'll form support groups to try to cope.

You gotta look at both sides if you want to be known as being fair and
balanced.

Some of us DO but, when messaging to unbalanced, unfair folks,
it is rather difficult... :-)

Heh heh. Expect the ARRL to get in on the act, maybe the
"Pro-coder Compassion Supporter (or Truss?) Fund" or some
title like that...

On the ARRL's "poll" for 5 Aug 05 and an opinion on NPRM
05-143, of the 9,484 votes cast: 48.5% said it was a fine
idea, 47.1% sait it was a terrible idea, and 4.4% had no
particular opinion either way.

Nah...let's just pick up the 2x4s and beat them over the head
with the issue...just like they used to do it to no-coders
in the last 50 years or so. I think they deserve it... :-)

Difficult, but not insurmountable. Remember, compassionate no-codism
serves both faith-based modes as well as all of the other modes.

a. The NCTA have nothing to be disgruntled about except a quarter
century of arbitrary and unnecessary government regulation, and

and right Now I can't see how NCTA can be disgruntled the only
bothering me now is chopping at the bit wiating for it to be over

Openly.

Turpentine bath.

With Carl in the ARRL, all things are possible.

On the ARRL's "poll" for 5 Aug 05 and an opinion on NPRM

idea, 47.1% said it was a terrible idea, and 4.4% had no
particular opinion either way.

Looks like a concensus. Those numbers were flipped when we were told
that we had to keep the code.

Nah...let's just pick up the 2x4s and beat them over the head
with the issue...just like they used to do it to no-coders
in the last 50 years or so. I think they deserve it... :-)

Please, no.

Remember that compassionate no-codism is tolerant of faith-based modes.
