And I don't think anybody here is debating that very fact. But it's about
how one does acquire said knowledge.
Most of what I know I learned either by making mistakes, listening to great
folks who liked to share their knowledge
or simply by studying things out of passion. The only thing I ever learned
from people who were only negative and
complaining was that such behavior is a waste of time and energy and doesn't
do anybody any good.
But I think we've beaten a dead horse now so many times that it almost wants
to be alive just to run away and die somewhere
else in silence :).

I think we are getting way off topic here. If you guys keep putting all
your energies into the past, you'll miss the future. Nothing you say
here, or do anywhere, is going to change anything.
Let's get back to AMSAT and Satellites. How 'bout that ARISSAT-1, huh?
Still going strong!

A quote from Churchill is apropos: "When the old and the young fight each
other, both lose the future."
I've tried to remember that. I am an Advanced-turned-Extra, first licensed
as a no-code Tech in 1991, following the license change in the US in the
1990's, and I have a GROL and Radar (post dumbing-down, I've heard that,
thanks) and this dead horse brings me to tears. I'm not even young!
I'd rather talk about my finally being able to comprehend DSP principles
after 20 years of trying, and of the possibility of having I-Q type
questions in the next Extra exam pool, but...this argument again.
