Hi,

I don't know how many times I've heard now in these various threads on 
this topic complaints that boil down to:

People like me who were not fortunate enough to be born long ago are not 
and never will be as good as those who took harder tests.

What am I supposed to do?  I can only work for and take the tests that are 
given *now*.  I CAN draw a basic radio circuit.  I can build a basic radio 
circuit without a schematic.

But it's not only your comments, Dex -- these came from many.  And don't 
misunderstand me -- I have the utmost respect for you and the other 
members of this reflector.

But what can I do?  My parents aren't even as old as most of you, and one 
of them is already dead.

Sounds like no matter what I do I'll never measure up.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,
