I got this from Gary Skaggs, WB5ULK. A a dyed-in-the-wool "diddiot," I find 
it too good to pass up!

Many of you have heard about the 'send off' that occurred on Jay Leno's 
show recently pitting CW against Cellphone text messaging.

West Mountain Radio has the video in WMV format. It is 8MB, so don't try 
this on a dial up! It's 3 minutes long. You will enjoy it!
