or... mechanics, plumbers, electricians, bosses in general, the city utility people, gas and power company people, commercial radio people, CB'ers, cell phone people, Wal-Mart employees (almost all of them), hamburger flippers, lets see... and all the rest of them cuz I can't think of any more specifically. Everybody but me!

They missed the part where it should say many 2 x 1 callsign holders are dumb as rocks.

Obviously some of that article is said with tongue planted firmly in cheek, but there are somethings he goes off on that just don't help promote ham radio, either. He had to throw the "no code" thing in there, for example...

I really don't think he said anything to promote Ham Radio. I just mostly found it loaded with joking and sarcasm . Definitely doesn't seem to be very happy.
