As the future would pan out, we have lost numbers, and a lot of

As a ship that is almost stopped proves, turning the rudder does

almost
nothing, or when the interest rate goes very low, adjusting it does

almost
nothing, eliminating the 5WPM Morse code will have no positive

effect on
the numbers of new hams, and the most likely effect will be that

with the
lesser effort, more and more will get into the hobby with only

slight
interest, and then drop out. That is not what we need.

Hey, do I get a prize for that freakin' long sentence?

How does it stack up against some of Edgar Allan Poe's sentences? I

know he
wrote some doozies when it came to length.


I think you'll find that James Joyce holds all the long-sentence
records.

And that Sweet Lenny holds all the records for irrelevant sentences.
