When we amortize 'our time' out over even something as short as our
own lifetime, it becomes worth a very small fiscal amount... the only
true value to 'our time' is in the living, and that is far too short
for argument and anger.



NICE!

When I am looking for ham gear, I am looking for specific items. A
simple search on E-bay tells me if its there or not, then I leave it
in a notify mode... if one of what I am looking for shows up, I get
an e-mail. This saves me a lot of time. My time is worth
$60/hr...what is *your* time worth??


Well, at work, its $86.00 / hour. However, this is a hobby for me,
as for most of us I think, so wouldn't really want to place a value on it.
Many of us are probably retired anyway.

I have been swapping and selling radios for years. Ebay has been my main
source for hard to find items. The Ebay FAs on this newsgroup bothered me
until I became an Ebayer. So maybe it primarily bothers the folks that do
not have the time or patience for Ebay, dont understand it or don't think
that one can get a fair deal bidding on auction items. Personally I have
found my best deals on ebay. There is also a lot of value to the Ebay
feedback system for determining the integrety of a seller. Everyone on this
NG has one thing in common, they are looking to swap, sell or buy a radio
and Ebay is an awesome place to get that "hard to find item". I must admit
that over posting is cheesy spam that clutters up the NG, but I do not mind
the FAs here if posted once weekly.

So you are down with porno links, attachements, and whatever else a
person decides to post here?

Sounds a little like anarchy.

You certainly have a hard time grasping that this is a RADIO newsgroup.

It's only anarchy when people with limited thinking capacity don't
understand the difference between radio, "porno links, attachements (sp) and
whatever else".

Get a grip dude, it ain't rocket science.
