I think we are getting way off topic here.  If you guys keep putting all 
your energies into the past, you'll miss the future.  Nothing you say 
here, or do anywhere, is going to change anything.
Let's get back to AMSAT and Satellites.  How 'bout that ARISSAT-1, huh?  
Still going strong!

Whats with these kids today, they can't drive a car unless it has automatic transmission. 
Don't get me going about these wimps and their paddle shifters. If you can't 
drive stick shift and double clutch(without synchromesh), you should just stay home!

Just give up on trying to explain to some of these drivers! They will never 
understand what you, Peter and others on here are talking about...

The way the US has dumbed down the drivers license requirements produced 
them...

A quote from Churchill is apropos:  When the old and the young fight each 
other, both lose the future.

I've tried to remember that.  I am an Advanced-turned-Extra, first licensed as 
a no-code Tech in 1991, following the license change in the US in the 1990's, 
and I have a GROL and Radar (post dumbing-down, I've heard that, thanks) and 
this dead horse brings me to tears.  I'm not even young!

I'd rather talk about my finally being able to comprehend DSP principles after 
20 years of trying, and of the possibility of having I-Q type questions in the 
next Extra exam pool, but...this argument again.
