Summary: Hey!!! Come on, let's have a rational discussion here. You have made the point already that it is easier to get a Novice ticket than it is to get into the average college fraternity (this is true...). There is no reason to go on and on about it. Getting antagonistic doesn't help anything. It just sends a message to non-hams that we are an elitist society with our noses higher than our scalp-rugs. Unfortunately, some actions the ARRL take help to give this impression. They don't need your help to give us more bad press. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Sayer | Packet Radio: N6QQQ @ WA6RDH | CMS: SYSOP@STOKTON%STOCKTON uucp: ...!sdcsvax!ucbvax!ucdavis!uop!mrapple | Fido: 161/31 Disclaimer: You didn't REALLY believe that, did you? cat flames > /dev/null
