[R-390] R-390A is no more available at Fair Radio

[David C. Hallam]

There is no storage of women engineers per se.  There is a terrible shortage
of engineers and scientists in the northern part of the western hemisphere.
As much as it pains me to see the politically correct TV shows about science
and space exploration where the majority of engineers and scientists are
shown as women, we desperately need more engineers, scientists, and
mathematicians of any variety if we want to keep our heritage and leaders
and innovators in the technical world.

Yes there is and engineering societies have not found that actively
recruiting
women yields much in the way of results.

I am very cynical on the matter.  I suspect that most female engineers would
want to put a doily on top of their classic 28ASR.
