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... :-) two for |

Some of us DO but, when messaging to unbalanced, unfair folks, it is rather difficult... :-) Difficult, but not insurmountable. Remember, compassionate no-codism serves both faith-based modes as well as all of the other modes. I sort of draw the line at the cretin who shouts, "God is for morse code testing and morse code!!!" that and I have have found myself breaking into song on the repeater stuff like that Stop right there. Even the slightest upturn at the corner of your mouth might be mistaken as gloating. [only the NCTA are allowed to gloat... :-) ] Openly. Feels rather good. Time to turn things around now and let all the coders have it as those smug, arrogant, "superior" types have acted for the half century I've observed them. :-) b. The PCTA make themselves look bad without any help. OTOH they do even better by just making em SEE happy folks They'll form support groups to try to cope. I hope so. think we should start a fund to help out? Compassionate No-Codism? I'm good with that. 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... With Carl in the ARRL, all things are possible. Carl ANDERSON? Yeah, right, just like Brain Kallie to make nastynoises. :-) 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% 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. [whut yu mean "we," white man?] [Tonto not hear dat...] NCTA super-extras like Jimmie Noserve will come out with the standard disclaimer that the website poll is "not scientific." They are so forking predictable that one doesn't have to think twice about what kind of rationalizations they write. 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. Geez...TUFF requirement! Not even a little 1x1 piece of oak? Difficult. One SO wants to get a Hasty sling, a good sight picture, BASS, and apply just a few ounces of pressure... There's "compassion" on the prarie, the badlands, and the great West for horses that can't make it. A gun or a knife solves their problems, provides time-tested "compassion." So it is with the coders. They can't make it without that TEST...so we should "do the right thing" and end their suffering. I'll have to consult with Pastor Midtlyng on that and get back to you... bye bye |
