[Elecraft] New Yahoo Group Formed

[Bert Craig]

I think he means on an internet forum level. Remember, there are many who use internet forums or boards as a "constructive distraction" at work. Gets kinda tough to hop on 40 from ones cubicle.

Many very interesting threads get closed here once too many folks comment on them, thus demonstrating the aforementioned interest. Relavence is quite subjective but since we still live in an open society, I use a simple formula. Elecraft=ham radio so ham radio=acceptable subject matter.

Then there are the forum cops who actually call for threads to be closed if THEY aren't interested in the subject matter rather than just hitting the delete button. The digital version of QSYing. I personally would be willing to pay Wayne and Eric a small stipend to help defray the associated storage cost, if that's an issue, in order to gain a little subjective elbow room. 

I think I know just where Eric's coming from

communications provided this 'service'?
