Default Shortwave Log is no more

You know, I never used his program but the same thing has happened with
other computer programs and I can sympathize with the people who
produce them. Invariably the author starts off producing the program as
a "labor of love" but, sooner or later, some - sometimes many - people
complain and annoy the program writer and they do it in a way that is
just mean.

How many of you who use a program that you have found useful have taken
the time to write to the author and thank him/her for it? We cannot
financially support each and every "free" program we use, but we can
ALL thank the writer!

It is a pity that many people - hopefully not any readers here - just
don't demonstrate good manners and show appreciation for something
someone else has done for them. Oftentimes we do notice a flaw or we
may have a suggestion for the author and making a constructive
suggestion (or even constructive criticism in a kind way) is beneficial
to the author and is most often welcomed by him/her. But no one
welcomes nasty comments and, frankly, there is just no call for them.

If all of us would live by the "Golden Rule," wouldn't this be a far
better world?

As always, just my thoughts.

Best,

Joe

Looks like Mr. Sillett has given up on his Shortwave Log program. His
final post to his Yahoo group was that he couldn't reproduce the
problems people were having with V5 and that he didn't appreciate the
tone of some of the comments he was getting. The next day, the Yahoo
group was gone.

Too bad.
