True - you were just the twit who decided to rant about it like someone pissed
in your Cheerios. Now I'm the twit responding to you. See? It all makes sense
if you think about it a bit. ;)

Or really miserable for the politically-correct types who think everything
should be done strictly by their terms, since they are obviously the best,
most correct terms. You seem to think others are acting irresponsibly, yet you
have no intent of taking any responsibility for yourself by not reading(sorta
like using the delete key) items that don't interest you. Instead you imply
that *all* the responsibility lies with other posters and *none* with you.
Hmmmm...

Many of us enjoy discussing the SP-600 made by [Hammarlund], even using one
when possible. And, while I won't try to speak for everyone else, I also enjoy
the stories passed on by others who lived and worked in a time that we can now
only read about. To me, it gives a more life and meaning to an
otherwise-obscure piece of old radio gear sitting in front of me.

Well, I'm really confused here, Bruce - why not a rant about the words "Boys
Toys" still being in the subject line as well, when the conversation had
obviously turned to life experiences, etc.? Pretty much unrelated, so it fits
with the rest of your argument. Why are you so put out of the topic of
[Hammarlund] still appearing in the same topic with [R-390] but none of the
other issues that would also fall into the category of being off topic or
otherwise 'filter-able'?

I have a theory, Bruce - you could be suffering from "R-390/Internet
Overload". It's possible that Don might have some Prozac samples available
that he possibly keeps on hand for just such an emergency here on the list.

In the meantime, just put the keyboard down and back away.... slooooooowly,
now....
