1. I wouldn't imagine that Americans are thought well of in most areas of
the world right now. My comments about not mentioning that he even knows an
American were meant facetiously. Nevertheless, my comments had nothing to
do with "knowing anyone in the Newsgroup".

2. The link was not provided as an endorsement, merely the result of a
simple search to show the radio with a slight discussion about radios
suitable for use in Europe, and most importantly, a warning about not using
American FRS radios in Europe.

Has Arnie suffered a stroke since his original post, leaving him unable to
respond first person? If so, wish him well for me.

Arnie's a Canadian, and I don't think that talking with people on a
usenet group counts as "knowing" them. As for two way radios, it would
probably be easier for Arnie to buy PMR radios when he gets to Europe
than to buy them online from a European dealer.

Sorry, my boredom (it's Friday night here in California, which means
nothing on shortwave, which means me surfing the net aimlessly) got the
best of me. I was just offering random thoughts. Too random (and too
much) for you, apparently, and for that I apologize.

Here I sit, same situation. My random thoughts are usually used to drive
co-workers crazy, and I begin slipping later in the evening. Also, we seem
to be plagued with endless winter here, something that is taking its toll
on many people.

Much Regards.

It was 85 degrees F in Sacramento today. Previous record was 81. Usually
when we get balmy conditions here, you guys back there get pounded with
snow/ice/etc. But don't worry, it's suppoed to be 68 and cloudy by
Monday here, which means that you guys might get a break.

-14 C here (a few degrees above 0 F), and snow.

No stroke here. Just a busy rest of the day. Lots of snow today here in
the Great White North. As far as I can tell Cdn FRS radios are the same as
US models. I did not take them when I went to Mexico a while back.

Can't say I have my finger on the pulse of world opinion on Americans. I do
know that the current administration is thought of as suspect, but I have
the impression that's dying down with some time passing.
