[CW] Morse proficiency

Tue, 27 May 2003 23:35:45 -0300

When I was several years younger, I was able to multitask like Uranito and,
in addition to fulfilling the same kind ofsimultaneous operations he
describes while sending and copying, was able at the same time to fly a kite
and wash my car with my then 3-year old son running around me barefoot! On a
couple of ocassions, I was also able to cook an omelette at the same time
without missing any dits nor dahs!.  Oh!!  I miss those days (I can still
cook the omelette, though!)
