[FARC] How do you feel about the term Silent Key

[Joseph M. Durnal]

This started from an online discussion between a few groups and
message boards, where some die hard CW operators didn't like the term
silent key being used to describe hams that passed away that didn't
actually use a key.

I think it is a respectful term, and an honor.  As much as I'm pro CW,
I'm not anti-voice or anti-digital modes.

To me, silent key works for everyone. You KEY the mic, you type on the
KEYboard, and you send code with the KEY. It all works for me.  I
later added, what about those SSTV ops, hmm, SK, maybe the K could
stand for Kodak :) because I couldn't associate the word key with a
picture, camera, or anything.
