[Elecraft] New Mystery: Copying groups vs plain language text (Rather OT)

[Victor Rosenthal 4X6GP]

I took my General (twice), my Extra, and my 1st Phone there. And we all 
talked about our experiences. I won't repeat the whole story again, but 
when I took my Extra, I did bring my own key -- a homebrew electronic 
keyer. He sneaked up behind me and pulled the plug after he'd heard 
enough to pass me.
And it was more like 60 years ago in my case.
