Good question. Nobody knows the real robesin. So many different

You mean like you, Brian "The Brain" P Burke, N0IMD?

You keep presuming to tell us all about how people should act,
speak to each other, and generally conduct ourselves in public
forums..

"What it's like to lick my excrement off of another man's
genitals" your words steve

Yep...

it states plainly you feel to do yourself what you claim I need mental
help for

Nope.

It clearly states that those are things I wil NEVER know what
it's like to experience, Morkie...

Again, YOUR lack of English comprehension skills undermine yet
another MorkieRant.

your followon threatens my murder if I merely follow YOUR instructions

You're letting your lack of English comprehension skills get the
best of you, Fatboi...Better, find that English tutor I recommended...

Oooooo!!!! TROLL and a half!!! :-)

May I be so bold as to ask what Len's credentials are insofar as having been
a member of the Military?

http://sujan.hallikainen.org/Broadca...s/My3Years.pdf

6 MB file size, takes about 19 minutes download over dial-up.

Also try /AlphabetSoup.pdf, similar in size, to see a copy of
a brochure of the same facilities a few years afterwards
(produced by the signal battalion I had been stationed to).

Now, what are YOUR credentials, "Tommy Edison?" :-)

Loved your light bulbs but you wanted DC instead of AC.
Bad choice.

No, his days as a Civil Servant working at an Air
Force base in Mississippi count for nil.

Of course they are "nil." I've never ever worked in Civil
Service, nor even as a servant. :-)

I've never been IN the state of Mississippi, let alone a
USAF base there. Closest might be Michoud, LA, while
working for Rocketdyne division of Rockwell International.

We all know how Len performed while there.

I "performed?" On stage? :-)

Do you need to see my AFTRA card? :-)

He had a penchant for posting to numerous Newsgroups while using his
employers' computers and yeah, had several times posted comments over the
callsign of an Amateur with whom he had past differences.

I did? What was this mysterious callsign?

Seeing as I'm self-employed but mostly retired, I use my
own computers for computer-modem comms. I have four, two
PCs and a couple of 8-bitters of early days.

I've never, ever tried to use anyone else's amateur radio
callsign. If you look at issues of Ham Radio magazine you
will see several articles with my byline on them; none of
those bylines contain an amateur radio callsign.

Len has, for a short while anyway, seemingly stopped posting over the
callsign of this unsuspecting Amateur, but ONLY because of one, astute
Usenet watchdog who likes to "out" Len.

A "watchdog?" Arf, arf! :-)

Other than seeming to be on some VERY heavy "stuff," your
confusion MIGHT stem from a voluntary summary and statistics
Comment made to the FCC on Docket 98-143. The compiler of
that document confused my NAME with the callsign of another
'Leonard H. Anderson' who lives in Montana and does have an
amateur radio license. I notified the compiler and cleared
up the confusion...but the document remains with the FCC as-is
and hasn't been corrected there. I live in southern
California and have never met nor communicated with this
other Anderson.

If you do a Search on the Internet you will find several
'Leonard Anderson" names. One is a USMC Major who recently
finished a tour with the USN Blue Angels aerial demonstration
team. Another is an actor in the Los Angeles area. My name
comes up as a character in a Role-Playing Game of some future
space-battle game; I forget which one and that is irrelevant.

In my humble opinion, any veracity that Len may have had went down the
proverbial tubes when he stooped so low as to post not once, but numerous
times over the callsign of this unsuspecting (and undeserving) Amateur.

Identify who and where these postings occurred.

As I've said, I've never ever tried to, nor had any need to
"impersonate" anyone in any newsgroup nor on any website.
I am secure in who I am and what I've done.

Sure you are, "Stagger Lee."

His
actions were not only uncalled-for, but were childishly tawdry.
This alone speaks volumes of Lennie....

Tommie boy, you've just described yourself in your posting.

Now go crawl into a light bulb and think about your error
in not choosing AC over DC. And stay off that hard stuff
before your mind gets bent more than what you've shown here.

Too bad they are all lies on your part.

Well, let me ask, from the point of view of a potential noob to the
hobby. What use is the code requirements?

The 'use' is something you just can't understand. The 'use' is a
commitment of
time and talent which adds value to the license. The 'use' is investment.

The term "investment" is very misleading. To explain my position, I am
in agreement that CW testing should go the way of the dinosaurs. I
have no problem with technical testing, as a way to ensure that
potential Hams can operate their radios properly, without causing
interference with neighbors and other Hams world wide. There is also a
safety factor, with transmitters that can kick out a LOT of
potentially dangerous power. So, technical exam = good idea.
Here in Canada, CW is not required IF you achieve at least 80% on your
technical exam. You need at least 55% WITH CW.
http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/epic/inter.../sf08435e.html
This seems fair, to me.

As for the "investment", not all investments are valuable. I invested
years of training to be a fully qualified mechanic. There is
considerable value in that investment, obviously, as it is my bread
and butter.

But, would my investment be more valuable if, for example, if an
additional year of carpentry training were required for me to be
certified? I mean, after all, cars had wood frames and bodies at one
time so a mechanic would have needed carpentry skills...back in the
1930's. Such an investment would be a bad one. The skills would have
no value and do nothing to enhance my skills as a mechanic. The extra
investment would have no return with regards to being a mechanic.
Carpentry would not make me a better mechanic and would not prove to
the world that I really wanted to be a mechanic.

CW is as useful to todays Hams as carpentry is to a mechanic. A good
thing to learn, and potentially useful, but should not be a barrier.

This is where your analogy falls apart. CW is currently very useful to
hams. It is in daily use. However, the arguments have already been
presented and those with closed minds have rejected them.
