Butch,

Don't go away, you contribute a wealth of information to the list.  Just 
ignore those who are set in there ways and are intolerant of your way of 
doing things.

For example, there is a lot of traffic on this list about the new digital 
modes on the VHF and UHF repeaters these days.  Listening to all the 
discussion on how to create code plugs for these radios makes my head spin. 
I am not interested in those modes nor have the patients to learn it.  I 
guess that makes me lazy also.  Let's go out and get a beer together.

Howard #3
