Ever since the U.S. Army has made it a point to continue basic battle training long after soldiers have finished basic training. And your point is? All sorts of people in all sorts of jobs face danger every day, Len. The electric wires don't put themselves up, and when a storm knocks out the power, the crews don't get to wait for a sunny day to fix them. Jim, Lens point is that every serviceman and servicewoman in uniform serves with the understanding that their very life is pledged, at the very real risk of armed conflict, to serve their fellow man, commonly for material rewards less than that enjoyed by an Assistant Shift Manager at your local Burger King. I realize that, Hans, and I honor that pledge and that service. I apologize if anyone was offended. That was not my intent. But Len tries to make it sound like no one other than military service ever faces any danger in their job. In the past (and probably in the future) Len and I have found all sorts of reasons to disagree, but on this issue I come down four-square on hisside. Comparing that pledge which Len, Brian, and several other here took, to the risks "suffered" by an electric company linemen or a construction worker is mean spirited and unbecoming. I did not mean to sound that way. Again, if it sounded that way, I apologize. Jim, if you felt an "apology" was warranted, then bravo for you. No bravos needed, Steve. The point I was making is that military service people aren't the only ones with potentially dangerous jobs, nor a commitment to do what is necessary at great risk to themselves. It was not meant in any way to denigrate, deny or minimize the commitment and sacrifices made by our military - past, present and future. But what I was trying to say could have been written a *lot* better than I wrote it. However if you get into the habit of "apologizing" everytime someone doesn't like your "tone" or how it MIGHT sound, then you just spend your whole life apologizing. In my experience, Hans/K0HB does not offend easily, nor ask for apologies lightly. That he was offended by what I wrote proved to me that my post wasn't very well written, since my goal was *not* to offend him! Spending your life with your tail between your legs is no way to live. I don't consider anything I've written here to be "my tail between my legs". Just the opposite. 73 de Jim, N2EY |

The original plan was for "senior citizen apartments" which we neighbors did not like. Why not? You're a senior citizen ;-) He's a citzen. There's not a whole lot "senior" about him. No, Steve, Len is definitely a senior citizen. He's way past retirement age. And "forcing" Lennie to live near other's his age would be like "forcing" him to get an Amateur Radio license...It might "force" him to realize that he is not the Alpha and Omega of his realm. Nobody's "forcing" Len to do any of those things. He's free to move if he doesn't like how the neighborhood has changed. My point about the whole zoning thing is *not* that Len or his neighbors did anything "wrong". The point is that they resisted a change that others wanted, even though the people who wanted it told them it was "progress" and would be a good thing for the future. Yet Len heaps abuse on those who resist a change in the Amateur Radio Service rules, even though the people who want the change say it is "progress" and will be a good thing for the future. As for the claim that those of us with licenses aren't affected by those changes in any significant way, note that those who already owned houses in Sun City aren't really affected by the zoning change of R to R1 in any really significant way. Of course Len and his neighbors could have bought the land from the failed developer and thus protected themselves from future development. Let's see...if the houses cost a half million, the land for each house might be worth a hundred thousand. That's only 4.4 million for 44 houses. Say 5 million with all the costs. Divided among how many neighbors? The rest is easy: 1) The neighbors pitch in and buy the land, to be held by a corporation formed for the purpose. 2) Developers are invited to submit proposals for development. 3) When a developer comes up with a proposal that meets all the neighbors' requirements, that developer is allowed to proceed, subject to a tight contract that only turns over title to the land when all conditions are met. 4) Profit! Yes, a two- story house or apartment would block my VIEW that I enjoyed for over 30 years here. So you think your "right" to a VIEW is more important than people having a place to live.... So...We get them to raise a privacy wall around the new buildings and let the mural artists go to work...Then Lennie can have whatever "view", however myopic, he wants. Maybe one with no antennas and no faces over 40? No mirrors? |
