   The Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers is a
   PROFESSIONAL Association.
   If you have "confusion" about it, feel free to write them at:
   IEEE
   445 Hoes Lane
   Box 1331
   Piscataway, NJ  08855-1331
   USA
   If your haughtiness has a problem with my PROFESSIONAL
   membership, take it up with the IEEE directly.  You can include
   "questions" on NON-work "conduct" all you want.
So, Len, your personal morality makes a distinction between how you
treat people in professional vs. personal life.
   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   "Personal morality..."
   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   Tsk, the Torquemadas are in a conclave now?  :-)   :-)
   Too funny, really...but tragic in the obvious state of
   mind of a future newsgroup moderator...and a possible
   course of action of future newsgroup "moderation."
   Here's a plain and simple fact:  Heil, unable to control
   hisself, searched and searched for a weapon of anti-morse
   destruction and seized the IEEE Code of Conduct...saying
   he "addressed it."  Not fully, so I merely listed the
   IEEE mailing address for his convenience.
   David Heil is perfectly free to communicate with the IEEE
   and bring his CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT against me to the
   attention of the Membership Committee of the IEEE, the
   Ethics Committee, whatever IEEE official, other IEEE
   members he wants to vent to.  So are you.  Go ahead.
   As I've said, as the IEEE says, it is a Professional
   Association.  It has no direct bearing on AMATEUR RADIO
   other than some of its thousands of members no doubt
   do professional work on designing, manufacturing, and
   selling of amateur radio equipment.  The IEEE makes
   available a forwarding alias for e-mail to members and
   I use that free service, hence the "signature" I use.
   Some have great difficulty with that "signature,"
   demanding I either drop it or get an amateur radio
   license and use that (as "official?").  Now that
   "signature" (or "ID" or just an e-mail address) has
   become a Cause Celebre' of yourself and someone who
   has an obsession of villifying his newsgroup enemies?
   Here's another plain and simple fact:  There are dozens
   of daily postings by anonymous individuals in THIS
   newsgroup spewing hateful filth about others.  A simple
   search of Google archives will turn up "responsible"
   (Ha!) "names" such as "Not Cocksucker Lloyd" and "Billy
   ****tydrawers" yet THEY are NOT made a target of this
   Inquisition into the "Morality" of their postings.
   Why IS that?  They do not have any identifiable
   connection with amateur radio, but you seem to avoid
   them in favor of direct (snide) "attacks" on certain
   others such as myself.  That is hypocrisy in action,
   demonstratable in things like the insinuation below:
In your personal,
non-professional life, you feel that it is acceptable
and defensible:
   What I do in my "personal, non-professional life" is
   none of your concern.  Neither you nor David Heil
   can control that, modify it, or make judgements on
   it leading to cessation of my rights to free speech
   as a citizen of the USA and as a military veteran of
   the USA.  Yet, you actively seek to CONTROL it.  Why?
   Because you are PERSONALLY upset by my words?  You
   feel you are such a supreme ruler that you can
   CONTROL opposing opinions or wish to delete all
   postings which are not to some arbitrary standard of
   protocol demanding obediance to some self-righteous
   opinions held by a ruling clique?
   If you wish to delve into my "personal, non-professional"
   life, get together an Investigative Team.  You can use
   those that Hewlett-Packard did (their business may have
   slowed since HP is under investigation and no doubt have
   some free time).  Feel free to start with my Pastor,
   Ralph Midtlyng, at All-Saints Community Church three
   blocks away from my house.  It is principally a Lutheran
   church but does not bar others about their "personal,
   non-professional life."  [recall that Martin Luther was
   no shrinking violet on matters theological?]
   Interrogate my immediate neighbors about my "personal,
   non-professional life."  The Topalians are right across
   the street, Hurleys and Brunos on either side, the
   Gonzalez family up on the corner.  Consult old issues
   of Ham Radio for my address; it hasn't changed since
   May of '63.  Try my city councilmember's office (Wendy
   Gruel, real name).  Or possibly the Los Angeles Police
   Department, Foothill Division.  Maybe you can extract
   juicy little tidbits of "scandal" to use in here to
   actively engage in vituperative attacks who don't fit
   your mold?  Since you won't find any, feel free to
   MANUFACTURE some.  Others do it, therefore it is okay?
   Yes, I suppose there is some great (grate?) significance
   about "personal, non-professional life" that the outraged
   wish to use as weapons of anti-morse destruction (see
   Heil's vituperation in here) against me.  Try my Sex
   Life (heterosexual).  My wife is also my high school
   sweetheart.  I would suggest you NOT consult my wife on
   "personal, non-professional life" for your own emotional
   safety.  Her name?  Hundreds of our school classmates
   know it.  Sorry, you'll have to find that out yourself
   but your Investigative Team will know the correct
   government agency to find that out...and many more items
   of "personal, non-professional life" data.
   I've tried to help you out here on "personal, non-
   professional life" items as a courtesy to your apparent
   Inquisition of a single individual.  You really can't
   ask more than that, can you?  :-)
   Why do you feel that AMATEUR radio activity is to
   be taken the SAME as Professional Activity?  Why do
   you side with the allegations of "misconduct" in
   "personal, non-professional life" by someone who is
   a known personal attacker of those he does not like.
   Do you wish to add more spotlights to some imagined
   "dispute" between a Professional Code of ETHICS, not
   "morality?"  Make this into a "federal case?"  Why?
   Personality conflict?  My failure to "pop to" and pay
   some kind of "respect" you feel "owed" to you?  I am
   NOT OBLIGATED to do that, except in a few individual's
   fantasies or imaginations.
   I am NOT OBLIGATED to "pay respect" to some olde-tyme
   radio amateur just because they have some federal
   license in amateur radio.  I was IN radio communications
   on HF full-time before some of these self-styled "rulers"
   of the amateur waves were born, using techniques that
   persist in amateur radio HF communications today.  With
   the exception of manual radiotelegraphy which wasn't used
   a half century ago but persists in the mythical "standards"
   of US amateur radio today.
   I am NOT OBLIGATED to ANYONE who insists on calling every
   statement I make "wrong" or others with some smug,
   arrogant attitudes that they are "superior."  My opinions
   are my opinions, those of a free and independent US
   citizen who has taken an Oath to preserve the Constitution
   of the United States.
   I am NOT OBLIGATED to ANYONE who cannot personally stand
   opposition to self-righteous opinions of theirs.  I am
   NOT OBLIGATED to "stand on an outside" on any subject that
   some alleged "insiders" say I do.
   I am NOT OBLIGATED to any would-be moderator who wants to
   both moderate and to engage in one-sided behavior in the
   newsgroup.
