Futurists are talking about a possible coming "virtual community" via
Internet that supplants towns, neighborhoods, or even nations in the hearts
and minds of its participants.
I say hams are already ... and for years have been... a virtual community
that shares similar traits, goals, aspirations, and code of honor. I
certainly feel more allegiance to the community of hams than my former
neighborhood or town or state in Florida... and maybe at times, even to my
nation.
Interesting idea that makes being a ham, and especially exchanging DX
contacts, a point for consideration within the virtual community discussion,
eh? 73
