Oh, can you point out the global amateur tcp/ip network for me? I had
always heard that amateur tcp/ip was essentially a parasite which could
not
live without either of it's "hosts", amateur packet radio and the
internet.
In effect, there IS NO amateur tcp/ip "network".. Just a series of
isolated, insulated LANS with NO amateur tcp/ip generated connectivity..
That is, other networks such as the Internet must provide a simulation of
connectivity which doesn't exist in reality.
This in contrast to the Amateur Radio digital network, which has generated
it's OWN , INDEPENDENT global connectivity, using Radios. ( I may be SLOW,
but I'm ahead of YOU! )
Deprived of it's hosts, amateur tcp/ip would do as any other parasite
would
under those circumstances..
It would wither up and quickly die.
So anytime you clowns decide to run down Amateur Packet Radio, remember
that you are just insects on Amateur Packet Radio's butt. Make a big
enough
nuisance of yourselves, and the packet radio community will scratch it's
ass. If that ever happens, you can kiss amateur tcp/ip goodbye.
So go ahead and make anti-ham-radio statements right and left. It's all
going into the record, bozos, so lay it on thick. Your attitudes are being
noted by the folks who write up the amateur radio regulations, and
determine the penalties for breaking them. Packet/Internet gateways are
already illegal in several countries. Look to your own attitudes and
statements about amateur radio anytime you are wondering "why" those
regulations were put into place. It can also happen here, if the amateur
tcp/ip community is stupid enough to keep talking trash about amateur
radio
and continue vandalising the Amateur Packet Radio network with "Internet
Forwarding" stations.
I think you folks ARE that stupid.
Knock it out, bozos! ;-)

The trouble with lusers like this is that they confuse "competition" with
"vandalism". It's the same attitude of the old Soviet-style state monopolies,
which crumbled under the weight of Japanese competition.
Nobody is sticking pins in the coax of Amateur stations and sticking
wireline modems in their place. Since the wireline technology is now
several orders of magnitude faster, better and cheaper (pick 3) than the
antediluvian "networks" that amateur antiquarian radio operators are still
operating, traffic is migrating there. No surprise.
This is no more vandalism than is it vandalism against Ma Bell to buy your
own phone or answering machine instead of renting one or theirs, as was the
rule before 1969.
We call it competition. When amateur packet radio can be competitive, it
deserves to get use, but for now that's not applicable to the entire
wide-area network.
'nuff said for this old thread.

Maybe you think that most hams are too young to play with tcpip
Maybe you are right.
But if you feel only three years old you must first grow up and then=20
,maybe, you feel the responsibility to play with radio networking and=20
other DANGEROUS things.
