It's Steve that gets Quitebothered by anonymous posters.

Oh, correction. ...by anonymous posters that don'tQuiteagreewithhim.

Did you ever "accept a draft notice", Len?

Couldn't.

So the answer is no.

Was already IN the U.S. Army.

At age 20. In my time, they were drafting 19 year olds.

What was YOUR prefix, Jimmie?

What does it matter, Len?

Jimmie "knows" all about parachute jumping in the military.

I don't claim to know all about it. Just some things.

You are way too modest. You've read about so many things.

Just like you, Len.

You ever do any parachute jumps, Len?

One.

For personal experience. Wasn't a requirement in radio.

Was it in the military? Was it from an airplane?

Maybe it's a new requirement in AMATEUR radio now? [I must
check with the FCC more often...they "revise the amateur
regulations so often" and everyone knows (in here) that
amateur radio is "a vital important service to the nation"
as I've been told by others]

You've never met the requirements for any amateur license, Len,
and some of your interpretations of Part 97 have been shown to
be in error.

How many Jumps have YOU made, Jimmie?

What does it matter, Len?

Suppose I had 100 parachute jumps on record - would you behave
any differently towards me?

I don't think so.

I see how you behave towards those with more service time than
you - with more experience than you - with more education than
you. Doesn't matter what their qualifications are, if they
disagree with you, they are treated to your classic jackass behavior.

Please note that I described your *behavior*, Len, not you. I have
not called anyone on usenet a jackass. Certainly not you, because I
don't think you're a jackass.

If I were to call someone a jackass, it could be an insult to
jackasses everywhere. Also, if a person really *is* a jackass,
then they can hardly be blamed for *behaving* like a jackass.

But if a person is *not* a jackass, yet exhibits jackass
behavior, they have only themselves to blame.

And why should "Arf! Arf!" be treated any differently?

Perhaps you could enlighten us on that, Jim......as I recall, you
yourself argued the other side of this point back in November, when I
was not agreeing with you (back in the 'Near Space Science'
thread).....your exact words we

Didn't get past me. Leo sez he's a VE3. But no call, no last name, no
positive
ID, no website, no outside confirmation. Maybe he is, maybe he ain't.

Hmmm - let's see here....I wasn't agreeing with you, so perhaps I am
not legitimate. Yet here you make a case for Arf! Arf!'s existance
because he does agree with you.

That's a puzzle, alright - wish I could help you answer it!

Nice to see you again, Leo! Of course, you have to realize
definitions in here are tangential to the Real World.

If you are FOR morse code testing by administrations, you are
"legitimate."

If you are against morse code testing then you are "illegitimate,"
"in error," "mistaken," "are a lying penis-head" and have
underarm odor.

Meanwhile, the anony-mousies may have gone back to their spam
letters of being some kind of "financial officer" of some
African country seeking "additional funds" to "get back"
millions in "held monies" and will freely "share some of that
"held money" if you cross their e-palms with more money. :-)

[anyone can be anything in this medium...and many are! :-)]

I'm not at all sure of what some of the cross-dressing anony-
mousies are in here. They may have been tossed off some porn
sites catering to "amateurs" and are confused as to content in
here... :-)

...the sun sets on the Tomb of the Unknown Solder as a solitary
figure in a patch-adorned flight suit slowly paces out his lonely
path of anger, J-38 in one hand, bayonetted USMC soldering iron
in the other. Pre-recorded marine marches softly fill the air,
interspersed with dits and dahs of a few PCTA morsebirds not yet
extinct. The Tomb of the Unknown Solder is a lonely place, deep
in the valley of neuroses, anger, and frustration. The single
sentinel counts cadennce to himself, muttering "flux you, flux
you" between the slow steps. His fists are clenched, eager to do
bottle but only sipping a cup of unkindness. It is sad but the
sentinel at the Tomb of the Unknown Solder keeps going. He does
not know why and that is the tragedy. The sun slowly sets on the
Tomb of the Unknown Solder leaving only the red light of fire in
the eyes of the muttering sentinel. Those glow in the dark like
LED pilot lights. Hatred lives on in his twilight of despair.

Temper fry.

...the sun sets on the Tomb of the Unknown Solder...(SNIP)

Again with the misuse of the Tomb of the Unknowns.

Yes, I saw the "Solder", but it's still inappropriate.

I guess the Tomb takes on a different meaning for those of us who
actually SERVED with others while IN combat. Monuments to American war
dead take on a different meaning when you actually KNOW men who died
and where there when it happened...not just read about it in a report
somewhere.

But you go right on ahead expressing your "free speech" and your
"right" to parody such things...and I'll go on calling you for what I
think you are for doing it...

It just shows he is full of BS. Has no concept of what he speaks, just is
here harass and trash those that have real experience and hands on
knowledge. In other words a bull**** artist.

In Nam we called them REMF. And to help you out loser Lennie....that is

Wherever they came from, they've sure been wreaking havoc in here
lately! Seems to have quieted down a bit in the last few weeks,
though.
