[Elecraft] Sad day for amateur radio

[EricJ]

And those of us who took our 13 wpm AND 20 wpm code tests in front of a
grumpy FCC Inspector waiting for retirement instead of a collegial VE buddy
can't stand to be in the same room with ANY of you guys!

OTOH I know I'm dangerously close to sounding like an Old Fart. I'm somewhat
disgusted to think that there will be Extra Class licensees that don't know
code but will be indistinguishable from me. (At the same time, the fastest
code test I passed was 13 WPM for my General in 1974, so there are probably
some 20 WPM Extras out there who can't stand to be in the room with me,
either.)
