[R-390] re: Netiquette (soap box rant)

[wli]

Well, I, too,  have a good experience buying stuff from the guys and gals on this list... and would also hate to see it go. The vast majority of us have limited time and money, and love this hobby (and I mean h*o*b*b*y) so the interchange of ideas and gear is welcome. I am not so naiive to think that a few won't use this forum to promote their own interests at the expense of others... but luckily, they are uncommon, and easy to spot.

In a philosophical sense, we are inundated with so many reports  of greed, corruption, and incompetence permeating business and government, that it is a refreshing change for me to interact with people of good will and principle. Luckily, radio is so measurement oriented, that it attracts folks who think and act objectively...

I'll get off my soapbox now
(and as Nolan used to say... runnin' and duckin')
