All of this politic stuff is no wonder why nothing gets done, maybe
someone should tell someone its time to retire and put in someone who
is not in there for a glorified title shot, I left one group in
Michigan turned in my radio and other people left after I did . i
nickednamed it the Chicken Band rescue Club and as far as this other
jerk he is King Chicken Band Leader. Until the ARRL Fires the persons dont count on me, like the car ads 0% interest thats my attitude of the ones here. I have better stuff to do.

"Florida state disaster team set up a shelter, but the Red Cross said it was unsafe and declined to run it.64 In Pearlington, the Red Cross declined to operate one shelter because it lacked a dehumidifer.65""The Homeland Security Department has requested and continues to request that the American Red Cross not come back into New Orleans. The red cross continues to thrive. I had little respect for them since I spent time at the Pentagon... after being told "we don't need you, give us your radios". I mean no dis-respect, as I am sure all local chapters are different. I feel certain many folks work hard, but the national leadership lacks much in the way of people skills. On the other hand, a local chapter, holds the amatuer community in very high regard. The higher you go up the chain, seems the more it is about the title, and not the mission. Seems to be the way of all politicians.. I, for instance, am having a lot of greif from one of the head-nuts at DHS. I nicknamed him "Ego-the-hut" the other day... LOL! Brought new meaning to oscillation... Now.. back to radio stuff ;-) 73 Mike Perryman www.k5jmp.us -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Mike Perryman Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 8:08 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Praise for the hams!!!! - Public Information Yep, if you read the appendices, there was one shelter that the red cross refused to man because it didn't have a dehumidifier... pretty sad when there are lives on the line.... and yes, I am tired of the ads as well.. 73 Mike Perryman www.k5jmp.us -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of mch Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 5:45 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Praise for the hams!!!! - Public Information This is a little off topic, but with all the money spend on the Red Cross ads with respect to Katrina (is anyone NOT tired of those?), I asked my local ARRL Division Director why the ARRL is not spending the money promoting Ham Radio at least in less expensive print form (newspapers, magazines, Etc.).
