 EH> You will enjoy HAM radio. There are clubs that will help you not only

 I'm betting the clubs have fees or dues though.  :(   I will check into it
 on the outside chance I'm wrong about fees or dues. 

 MK> I know I'm going to.  It'll be nice to ask educated questions  :-)

 EH> Heh heh heh... There is no stupid question. ;-)

The old saying is that the only stupid question is the one not asked. :-)
I'm fascinated by that website.  I'm going to be spending a lot of time there.

 MK> Some people don't know how to appreciate help.  Don't let it bother you.

 EH> This isn't the first time I've gone through this process. It never 
 EH> ceases to amaze me, though, how ungrateful some people can be.

Well like anything else you can't shove help down someone's throat. You can 
give it but if it's not taken, don't give any more to that person. 

 EH> > This packet will be the last thing I have to say about the subject.
 EH> > If you aren't interested enough to educate yourself in the subject,
 EH> > there is nothing I can say or do to help you.

 MK> What if I have a question?  Does this mean you won't answer it?  :(

 EH> Oh no, I will answer your questions. I'm just not going to prolong 
 EH> the agony of trying to be helpful to people who don't appreciate it.

 Sean can vouch for me that I'm grateful for any help I get :-)
