They don't? Ever???

Herr Kommandant lives in an on-off world, either key down or key up.
He can't seem to negotiate understanding the in-between. :-)

Herr Kommandant? Godwin invoked. You lose.
You certainly haven't described me. As one who enjoys playing music,
particularly blues and jazz, I'm quite at home with flatted notes. I
can also tell the subtle differences in a variety of prigs.

"""Tell us about amateur radio's role in an emergency."""

They should do whatever they can with whatever they've got.

Correct. That would be logical.

Quite right, Spock.

However, das Kommandant bin a morseman for four decades
and can't understand that the amateurs "will" take over when
the government-commercial infrastructure fails in an emergency.

Are you certain that the above reads the way you intended?

Some say that the infrastructure "always" fails. :-)

Hardwired communications infrastructure is much more likely to fail.
All cellular phones interface to wire lines at some point.

"""I want to hear once again about how all of the infrastructure is
never destroyed."""

Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Why do you say, "never?"

Der Kommandant ich bin ****ed, he troll and troll his boot but
all his bouyancy tanks are flooded.

I have no idea what that is supposed to mean, Leonard.

Sorry, David, but I'm not very musical. I did sing "RockyRaccoon" once
after ingesting some bad branch water. I feel much better now.

Der Kommandant wants to be Daddy Warbucks and have everyone
sing "Tomorrow" from the musical "Annie."

Unfortunately, the sun DID come out, and many years before. But,
struggling to work Frenchmen out of band, he was too busy to
notice.

Und zo, kleine newsgroupies, der Kommandant keeps snarling
black for white all the time as if he were In Charge. He has NO
verification that all amateurs can do as the ARRL states that all
amateurs do, hasn't claimed he has done it hisself, and therefore
tries to shift gears in his own shiftless way by going to extremes.

Is this your attempt to appear demented?

It's the usual old, tired bull**** by the PCTA extras: Attack the
messenger when they can't send a reply on the subject.

Excuse me, Leonard, but it certainly looks as if that is precisely what
you have done. My words to "bb" were about a subject. You have drifted
off on a sea of German phrases.
