Sucks to be you, Putz.

Tsk. The Stalker put away is Amateur Corps Class A uniform and the
recruiting posters for the United States Amateur Corps ("A few good
men...")
and lapsed into his hate-filled snarliness mode.

I see a glimpse of humanity from Steve every few weeks. I like him
much better that way. I'll pray for him tonight.

I used to pray for him. Some time ago. Reason was I got this
faraway guffaw smothered by a divine hand, I think. It went something
like this: Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Well, Stalker IS a representative of top-of-the-line amateur radio
licensee.

Let's back away from that idea for a while. What? We've got maybe
four or five Extras on here who are congenital liars, spinmasters, or
just cranky old farts VS how many did Jim just post are in the ARS?

Whatever Rev. Jim's source, it is the only one "correct."

I prefer Hamdata.com tabulations, not the "interpreted kind." All
those sources have fast broadband access to the SAME data
files (enorrmous ones, BTW).

I see your point. I also see all the PCTAs who are arrogantly
adamant about Being So Right about their viewpoints.

All us newsgrope readers see the same text. Those mighty words
of the PCTA (and their ilk) appear on everyone's screen. They have
their Say and So Be It. They are the Great Gurus. De facto, not
de jure. What is anyone to believe about U.S. amateur radio if
their only source of information is from those same OFs?

I don't think Steve and the others on here are representative of
top-of-the-line amateurs at all.

No? :-)

I agree with you...knowing more radio amateurs off-line than on-
line. KD6JG is what I consider a good friend and I'm hoping to
say hello to him in mid-California a bit later. W6MJN was Best
Man at my wedding. That's just two out of many. shrug

As a matter of fact, I feel kind of sorry for Jim. I think he's hung in
here about a year too long. He should have bailed before his lost
his last remnant of dignity.

Jim was on the AOL ham pub before I saw him on r.r.a.p. Was
like a Newington-south recruitment drive on AOL to me. Came
off like an 80-year-old OF. QED. Couldn't take much
controversy then, can't now.

His
post about "Morse Code Exams are a disincentive to CW use" really told
the tale. Since then he's gone over to the dark side and can't find
his way back. He's truly committed.

All that "committment" gets to all. Amateur radio is NOT a
marriage and life ever after. The PCTA cannot change their minds
nor let anyone else change their minds. Not ever! :-)

"MARS IS amateur radio" is from an extreme case. :-)

All the PCTA love him. He be Tuff and Loud. Yell-Yell alla time.

I think they only support him because they think they'll all hang
separately if they don't hang together. I can't imagine them actually
coming forward to say they love him. Just another case of group-think.

Well, united they hang or they hang separately. Either way, the
hanging happens.

But, here's the thing with Yell-Yell: Everyone against him is
"really me under a pseudonym!" So, what you just wrote is what
I just wrote, since "we are the same person!" Hi hi hi hi.
Bang the conundrum slowly... :-)

So suprised when Jim first said Bruce might be brilliant (hi, hi),
then said he wasn't proper amateur material.

Broose is just a character...with or without a license. :-)
