Here the NCI offers proof and spells it out, just in case these old key

As some have noted in the past, "There are liars, and there are DAMN
LIARS!"

It obviously didn't work did it. Not only is the total number of hams far
greater today than then but as a percent of the population we are more
numerous than then.

UNTRUE, Dee. The peak in license numbers happened a few
days longer than TWO YEARS AGO. The number of total U.S.
radio amateur licenses are now over 6 thousand LESS than
they were two years ago.

It simply goes to prove that anyone who wanted to be a
ham could.

Yes, Dee, and you too can become a concert violinist, an
artist-illustrator, a champion athlete, an intellectual
somebody IF YOU WORK REALLY REALLY HARD AT IT...plus one
tiny things: A physical aptitude ability to do that.
