Ed,

  There needs to be something in the question pools about on the air
etiquette. There are far too many who feel that "It's an EMERGENCY,
if their ROUTINE traffic, which they CERTIFIED as PRIORITY, isn't
given precedence...so their HEALTH AND WELFARE (ego) is destroyed.

  The world, ham radio, nets, or any other hobby, revolves around
NO ONE. While ham radio is a HOBBY, many consider it an OBSESSION,
as if it's "Do You, Ham...Take Radio...To Be Your Lawfully Wedded
Spouse??". For that matter, it's what Sysops do to their BBS's. <G>
