You know, my kids don't act like this.
If they did...
Well, they don't.
Holier-than-thou, narcissistic, shall I go on?
Are you all ticked at *me*now?
Good, at least I have you agreeing about *something*!
Mmm... I wonder why AMSAT membership is waning...

Well said Joel, now they can be upset with me as well. I thought my net
comment was funny considering it was named a 2 Meter Tech Net, get it
Technician, but that's the dry New England sense of Humor.
I also don't post much on here as I am usually listening to Satellites or
making contacts on the Birds, or rag chewing on HF.
Just a bit more on Narcissistic personalities, you be the Judge !
Expects to be recognized as superior and special, without superior
accomplishments
Expects constant attention, admiration and positive reinforcement from
others
Envies others and believes others envy him/her
Is preoccupied with thoughts and fantasies of great success, enormous
attractiveness, power, intelligence
Lacks the ability to empathize with the feelings or desires of others
Is arrogant in attitudes and behavior
Has expectations of special treatment that are unrealistic
They also missed Legend in Own Mind, and Self Back Patting..
Anyway, Flame away it's snowing and I have nothing better to do today than
read and laugh at people on the internet..

Everything you just said justified negativity. This is also part of the
problem. Please try welcoming kindness, courtesy, and general warmth. This
passive attitude towards negativity shouldn't be allowed.

Dear Clint,
As a board member, I am well aware of
what transpired.
AMSAT is working on bringing our old
Field Operations organization back up to
being relevant. We are actively looking for
volunteers to be Area Coordinators.
You were contacted as a previous volunteer to
see if you were still interested. Since you
stated that you were not willing to do what
is expected of an Area Coordinator, we are
forced to find someone else who is willing
since we need to fill that position.
In no way were you "dismissed" from AMSAT.
If you want to go about doing things your
own way there is nothing wrong with that.
AMSAT welcomes all volunteer activities
that promote AMSAT and amateur satellites;
including yours.
This is a hobby. It is supposed to be fun.
The amsat-bb is supposed to be used to talk
about satellites not to take shots at
other volunteers. You still owe Barry an
apology.
73,
Tony AA2TX

>> As a board member, I am well aware of what transpired.
By reading your public message, NO, you were not told accurately what
occurred.
You were not told of all the content of an hour-plus phone interrogation by an
AMSAT-NA appointee and what was discussed. And I did not see you CC'd in
those email messages from the board president.
Your current board president has no clue as to the value of what many
volunteers
were doing on behalf of AMSAT-NA. There are at least four devoted, fervent,
dedicated advocates of AMSAT-NA that have been turned off and dismissed by
this "criteria" that has popped up. Some have been told to alter their
presentations.
You have a board president who wrote, after being advised that AMSAT-NA was
cited in CQ magazine a couple of times in my articles, that " ... AMSAT-NA's
mention
in magazine articles is the relative value of published articles diminishes
over time ... "
Those are words of someone who has no clue as to the power of the Internet.
You
cannot BUY the type of marketing and positive exposure that I have given
AMSAT-NA
the past eight years.
As I wrote in January at ... http://www.work-sat.com/2014.html ...
I doubt that any AMSAT-NA leaders could name ANY OTHER volunteer who has
promoted the organization as often and as fervently as have I ... yet this
well-documented history of promotion - worth many thousands of dollars in ANY
public-relations professional?s portfolio - through my time and efforts has
been
judged as ?lacking? by the current leadership of AMSAT-NA.

Just out of interest, what IS an AC expected to do? That must be
published somewhere. Can you provide a link?

NASA MEDIA ADVISORY M14-028
NASA Television Airs Departure of Commercial Cargo Ship from Space Station
Orbital Sciences' Cygnus cargo spacecraft, which delivered almost a
ton-and-a-half of supplies and scientific experiments to the International
Space Station in January, will complete its month-long mission to the
orbiting laboratory Tuesday, Feb. 18.
NASA Television will provide coverage of its departure beginning at 6 a.m.
EST.
Expedition 38 Flight Engineer Michael Hopkins of NASA, with the assistance
of Koichi Wakata of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, will use the
station's robotic arm to detach and release Cygnus. The pair will operate
from the station's cupola robotics workstation.
Now loaded with trash, the U.S. commercial resupply craft will be detached
from the Earth-facing port of the Harmony module about 5:30 a.m. and will be
released at 6:40 a.m. Undocking coverage will be recorded and replayed
during live coverage of Cygnus release.
On Wednesday, Feb. 19, after it has maneuvered to a safe distance away from
the station, Cygnus will fire its engines twice in a maneuver that will
enable it to slip out of orbit for a destructive entry into Earth's
atmosphere. Cygnus will burn up over the Pacific Ocean. The deorbit sequence
will begin shortly after 8 a.m. There will be no television coverage of
Cygnus' deorbit.
For more details about Cygnus' mission and the activities of the
International Space Station Expedition 38 crew, visit:

Well, Mr. Grumpy here did NOT get it - at first. That is exactly what you
explained: An Internet message
group's message and intent do not always shine through as expected.
I mis-took your comment as a "slam" against us lowly Technicians - and that
"techs" were excluding
others in some manner. "Tech" to me is sometimes used derogatorily and
almost as a "slur" when
speaking with hams with advanced (pun intended) licenses.
So when Mr. Grumpy - er, I mean - when I - read it, I saw it as possibly
meaning that "techs" only
were involved ...
Whatever. I mis-read it. It IS actually funny - now.
