Allow to point out the flaw in your reasoning

Fred W5YI has his opinions, Bill has his opinion (I am sure not all of
which are the same) I have mine which other than supporting the end of
code testing deverge as well

NCI's opinion and action are based on the common threads of the
membership and BoD

Fred and Bill and I are all free to have opinions on other subjects

This line of attack makes no more sense than saying NCI hates code use,
because some of it memeber, like myself, think (and express) the ARS
would be better off if the ARS abandoned Morse code USE

NCI is colaition with members holding a wide range of opinions

We supported ONE-time upgrades...NOT a permanent
change in testing going forward. Again, we will just have
to disagree as to what that translates to. You are
entitled to your opinion, as am I.


A trip down memory lane, Bill. A few years ago, while he was Executive D=

of NCI, we saw this regarding Fred Maia.

I found one of his opinions quite interesting. He feels that since peop=

In other words, theory and math questions would be removed from the Techn=
