Dave,
The parallels with radio are striking.50 years ago, Short Wave radios were high
tech stuff.A ham radio license meant you knew electronics and Morse Code.The
hobby involved equipment, local clubs, and talking to peoplearound the
world.Often the conversation was about equipment...
Now this pdml group is pretty high tech with computer gear.We share a hobby of
photography.And we spend way too much time talking to people around the world.
Regards, Bob S.
