Frank, you've come out as an NCTA and thus are on Dave's ****list. Then Dave is barking up the wrong tree. I'm not a ham but I do see the value of keeping the code as a requirement. Not only is it one of the most efficient and universal forms of radio communication, learning the skill demonstrates both a willingness and dedication to the hobby and it's history. Besides, 5wpm isn't so hard that it leads to chronic insomnia or constipation, but some of these no-coders whine about as much as Dudly does when he's asked for proof of his military service! Code isn't that big of a deal. Learn it, pass the test, then either use it or don't use it but at least you'll have a skill you didn't have before. IMO. Dave thinks you've "sided" with me. I'm on Dave's ****list from years ago. :-) Well, that's between you and Dave. Apparently he can't make that distinction. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

Frank:
You are much more dense than I'd imagined, I am sorry to have given you too much credit, let me explain it to you, perhaps you can get the picture. While the evolutionists have gone around spinning a story of life beginning in mud puddles (and who knows for certain, I certainly don't), SETI has been created and searches the heavens, also, in some southwestern desert there is a "big ear" which searches for ET--and at least a good portion of a billion has been spent on its' creation, recently. If we came from a mud puddle, then in some of those billions and billions of mud puddles out in the universe, which formed millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions or even billions of years before ours, life also began... surely you can realize that--unless you still are afflicted by the same disease and consider yourself "SPECIAL!" (perhaps you consider your amateur license proof you are a member of a sole-solitary race?) Then there is "life by intelligent design" and a supreme being, I am sure you are familiar with that argument--and there are some points needing further investigating... Then again, even if it a "mud puddle god" which is now on his/her/their way to us right now, we may not be able to tell the difference between them/it and a/the supreme being(s)--or perhaps, "God forbid!", they did create us and now study us from a "duck blind"... Surely if you can scoff at that, you would know you risk being a complete idiot... but if you believe in a mud puddle, you are actually betting on aliens existence, make no mistake, I don't, and just because the gov't or FCC hasn't told you is no excuse for not thinking--"they" just think it would be too unsettling to let the "dumb masses" in on the "little secret", or perhaps the driving force is not to insult them, like the reason they don't tell queers what sick buggers they are... go figure... maybe it is the mental health bill to "cure" 'em which they are avoiding...

You have concluded that I think life does not exist elsewhere in the universe. I said no such thing. On the contrary, I think that extraterrestrial life is not just a possibility but a statistical probability with a level of confidence that's better than the sun rising each morning. What I find amusing is the way some people use that as a justification for their belief that the government is hiding little grey aliens. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

In the beginning, God created the earth, and he looked upon it in His cosmic loneliness. And God said, "Let Us make living creatures out of mud, so the mud can see what We have done." And God created every living creature that now moveth, and one was man. Mud as man alone could speak. God leaned close as mud as man sat up, looked around, and spoke. Man blinked. "What is the purpose of all this?" he asked politely. "Everything must have a purpose?" asked God. "Certainly," said man. "Then I leave it to you to think of one for all this," said God. And He went away. --- Book of Bokonon, Chapter 1, Verses 2-4 |
