I have no idea.

I'm sorry to say that I don't rememebr what originally set Tom off. Perhaps Art remembers.

It was part of a much larger letter from a still-current, non-GLD member. Is there a some sort of legitimate basis the writer's feelings? Can all of the similar feelings toward us be dismissed as being totally off base? "As a former Section Manager and a Life Member I have felt betrayed by ARRL actions, propopsals and responses for several years now. It just keeps getting worse!" I suspect Bobby B might have said something such as The Best Laid Plans of Mouse and Man Oft-time go awry." (OK, one of you Burns scholars, give me the proper quote, please.) 'tis a puzzlement even outside of Siam and to people lesser than kings. Jim W. AMATEUR RADIO: The only fail-safe communications system in the world. ARRL: The reason Amateur Radio is!
