Let's recap:

Why? :-)

Paul: "I know Dave Heil. I respect Dave Heil. I don't need to be a
clone of Dave Heil to express an opinion in this forum."

Len: "Tsk. A paraphrase of a Senator who lost an election is a poor
choice of words..."

Why mention that the Senator "lost an election" if it doesn't attempt to
advance any argument other than an undermining of my words and his? Why
dig up the bones of a dead man just to have something to throw at me?

Why did you - repeat you - bring up the late Lloyd
Bentsen at all? Did Lloyd Bentsen have an amateur
radio license? :-)

Heck, Leonard, it should put you at ease. You don't have one either.

Which is the greater "Tsk"-able offense in your mind? That I've
allegedly cribbed from someone? Or that I've allegedly paraphrased a
quote from a context where the person stating it was not successful in
his goals?

You are building a Mount Everest out of an anthill. :-)

Try to remember that ANY public posting in any computer-
modem venue, from early BBS to the Internet, is OPEN for
"commentary" by ANYONE.

Just a couple of days ago, you made a post where you felt compelled to
state that I reply to posts not directed to me. You've gotten yourself
into a little dilemma, old boy.

If you take offense at every
negative comment that you perceive is directed at you,
you are already in trouble. But, that trouble is only
yours, your perception.

Then why do you feel the necessity of going to ALL CAPS and raving of
PERSONAL denigration, especially after you've engaged in personal
denigration?

["Been there, done that," got lots of moderator T-shirts]

You certainly have been there and done that, t-shirts not withstanding.

It's reasonable to
argue that pacing of short, declarative sentences to build to a
conclusion is a common technique that both the Senator and I were using,
and both owe our thanks to a rich and common language heritage that
existed well before our times.

Try to concentrate on amateur radio policy matters in this
newsgroup. If you want to do Literary Review things, I'm
sure there is some kind of newsgroup for that somewhere.

Please remember that you wrote the above words. You are very likely to
see them again.

This newsgroup is not a debate forum for national politics
of the USA of the past millennium. Really.

Is it about your military escapades of better than a half-century back?
Does it concern itself with your PROFESSIONAL experience?

Do you feel that
only you are capable of properly advancing these arguments in this
forum, and no one else?

Tsk, I state my opinions directly. If those collide with
others, then they collide. TS.

And if others react to your direct opinions and to the manner in which
they are presented?

I will also make commentary about things and persons as I
would do in person.

If you had said some of the things in a face-to-face encounter that
you've written here, odds are that you'd find yourself on the seat of
your pants fairly often.

Tscha, my suggestion is still the For an indefinite
period of time DELETE this newsgroup. Put it on a hold,
whatever. Let the sociopaths, misfits, the emotionally-
disturbed malcontents go somewhere else for their filthy
perverted jollies. You (and the newsgroup powers-that-
be) cannot control them now, what makes you think you
can control them with group "moderating?"

That should be easy to figure out, Len. Their posts don't appear.
