[bars] JOTA-JOTI?

[Christopher Lennon]

I looked through the website and they directed hams to contact their local
council.  I would think that as a young vigorous ham you could manage
that.  It may not be too late.  Or are you not really concerned about the
hobby continuing down the road of geezer decrepitude and people who don't
use Venmo?
