[SOC] Come on, do not slow down...

[Frank Wroblewski]

Andy,
I don't speak Latin, since I'm not from Latin America. I also don't trust
Google, so I went to a Dark Web site for the translation of "Lentius,
Inferior, Infirmior." Accordingly, I found the phrase means "Keep Off the
Grass." Your Latin phrase is very appropriate here in Florida as we will be
voting on the recreational use of Marijuana in November. The thought of
hundreds of SOCers using 'grass' while operating in a Sprint would slow
things to a Crawl. We should remember the unforgettable words of some dead
famous person, "A penny saved is worth two in the bush."

73,

Frank W2XYZ
