No, I did not renew... a few ornery DXers who are against radio as a
business made it annoying, particularly when one has to pay to be a
member.


They told you not to Renew.


No, I got multiple e-mails from club officers and long term members asking
me to continue.

I'll bet they didn't know you flunked out of high school!

As stated before, I quit because I started a business instead. School was so
boring that it was easier to read the text books the first week of school,
and then skip classes and only take the tests.

You flunked out of school and then did the only natural thing: you
went to work. If you'd really been a good student, other, poor
students and even poor teachers could not have held you back. Your own
inherent curiosity and intellectual vigor would have propelled you
forward. Instead, you failed and went to work.

And that is fine. You have no reason to feel ashamed; but your
incessant breastbeating and your relentless search for approval
betrays a deep sense of shame.

The fact is that I had tired of school, and was much more interested in
business and radio. What would you say was more of an acheivement at age 18:
a piece of paper proving you graduated or owning the #1 station in a city of
nearly 1 million population against 41 competitors?

And that is fine. You have no reason to feel ashamed; but your
incessant breastbeating and your relentless search for approval

I'm proud of the fact that I was smart enough to know that continuing in
school would be frustrating and, probably, damaging. I slipped the noose and
did some rather significant things.

Yeah, making stuff up is good if one is in the movie biz!

No, building the first Top 40 station in South America is significant, as
well as building the first FM in the Bolivarian nations is, also. Both, by
the way, before I was 20. What were you doing then?

Again, the paper is not the achievement. Had you succeeded, you would
understand that.

And that is fine. You have no reason to feel ashamed; but your

It would not have been frustrating had you been a better student. But
you failed and went work. No one could ask any more of you.

To continue not renewing? How interesting can false information be after
a while?
