This newsgroup is about AMATEUR RADIO POLICY.

Dwight, Lennie makes this assertion when it becomes obvious that
he's been bested, especially by someone he considers below his social
station.

The special recall election in California is NOT about amateur radio.

Lennie will rant on and on about Japan, his days as an "enginer",
and his stellar career as a "contributing editor" of a magazine that
wwent belly-up.

Please use a spellchecker when you become so enraged.

I was an Associate Editor at HAM RADIO magazine, so listed on
the "masthead" (listing of staff) every month for two years. HAM
RADIO magazine was an independent technically-oriented monthly
that was published for TWENTY-TWO YEARS. It got started and
survived in competition with QST, CQ, and 73 for over two decades.

There can be no "blame" attributed to the content of HAM RADIO
magazine. It was always superior technically to all the others. The
fault may lie in the dwindling readership of radio amateurs no longer
caring about technical matters or home workshop projects sufficient
to attract advertisers and advertising revenue.

HR, CQ, 73 never had the financial backup of a membership
organization to keep them afloat when advertising revenue was hard
to get. QST survives only because it is basically a membership
magazine with the (~12 million) resources of ARRL behind it. The
three independents succeeded and stayed in business despite not
having such guarantees of demographics to attract advertisers.

I was, and continue to be an electronics design engineer both as
professional (paid) and amateur (unpaid).

The fact of the matter is that I've DONE IT, have the documentation
and enough witnesses to convince any court except the vigilantee
groups who only want to destroy others while spewing forth hate and
vomit on those who've done things.

And what give YOU the right, Mr. Anderscum, to demand that Dwight
make the content conform to YOUR specifications?

You, you lying sack of buffalo excrement, are the one who is
constantly calling Dave Heil and Larry Roll all sorts of names for
allegedly doing the same thing, yet here YOU are VERY obviously NOT
living up to your own rhetoric...

"Buffalo excrement?!?" :-)

As they say in Silicon Valley, let the "chips" fall where they may...
