Hello everyone.

I think every one, especially hams should read this week's lead article in 
the Handiham World Weekly news letter.  It speaks of a bygone era when 
manners were respected, and when kids were sent to the principal's office 
for even thinking about saying bad words even marginal ones as compared to 
now when the worst kind of foul language is going out over the air on ham 
bands and being spoken by hams themselves.

One thing the article didn't point out is that those hams of my generation 
wouldn't even have considered speaking bad language on the air because if 
they did, they would at least be heavily fined, or at most not be hams very 
long.  That is before the FCC decided it was beneath its authority to 
regulate amateur radio as it should be regulated.

Maybe I shouldn't say this, but if you can't find this news letter on the 
Handiham website, or if you didn't receive it, call this My Telespace box to 
listen to it.

1-575-802-8142 and select option three.

Thanks, Ray for putting it up.  That's what enabled me to read it because I 
accidentally deleted my copy before I got a chance to listen to it.
