Well the FCC has finally done it, they are dumping the CW requerment for higher level tests. I will admit I don’t care one way or the other. The only problem I see, is the old big pot belly hams are going to start to harasses No Code hams even more. I don’t go on[…]
I say Catherine Baker Knoll is a heartless person. Why would I say this? I say this because she crashed a funeral of a fallen Marine, to make an anti-war message. I have no problem with her being against the war and saying so, that is her constitutional right, but you do not crash a[…]

I find this new name for the next version of windows funny. Why would I say this. Well the last project I worked on at work was called VISTA and it was an acronym for “VISualization of Threats and Attacks” and I think that is almost correct for windows, windows is a threat to computers,[…]

The Post-Gazette also has an article on the protest yesterday The title of the article is not very nice, but the article itself is ok, but you have to remember the Post-Gazette is more of a liberal leaning paper. But they did get it right about the counter protest using profanities, but what they got[…]
