Movie

[Carl]

Terrific, now the public will think amateur radio is for weirdoes and freaks who try to
talk to dead people !! Pardon me for sarcasm but there are many true stories of ham radio
being used to save lives and enrich lives, why go gaga over this movie ? This like the
movie where the father re-incarnates as a snowman is just odd and I for one don't see it
helping ham radio. Romance sells, why not one of the couples who met via radio and later
married being made into a movie ? Or any of the dramatic rescues we read about ONLY in
the ham press from time to time.
