[bars] JOTA-JOTI?

[Juan Jiménez]

Now *that* was an idiotic reply typical of a motormouth HAM old fart. I
assume you must believe in some sort of deity, no? Are you not aware of why
you were created with two eyes, two years, but only *ONE* mouth?

I don't even know why I waste my time with this. This is the last straw, I
am out of this braindead mailing list.

73,
