LEEMING http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=lemming Someone better explain what is going on real quick on the WIA Newswest before people get out of control
I find it hard to believe that our fellow hams in VK5 have sent us an invitation to Hahndorf and have clearly expressed they want West Australian Lemmings and their partners to come. This wording and news from the Chief Lemming and broadcast team has to be explained. Are you saying you are a Lemming for following blindly along with a few who believe they are in control of all amateur radio operators or ARE WE THE LEMMINGS FOR LISTENING TO THE VOICES OF A FEW ON SOCIAL MEDIA, PODCASTS AND NEWSWEST. PLEASE EXPLAIN
The author of this segment would do better if he used his braces to hold his lower jaw closed, as he gets intoxicated by his own verbal verbosity
I am tired of being one of the few keyboard warriors. Lemming in the Urban dictionary describes us as small rodents, fools, cretins, a derogatory term used to reference a person who seemingly does not possess any form of individual thought, and instead, mindlessly follows the behaviours and actions of the masses. Please fellow hams and all others let these people know what you think. You are not LEMMINGS, your wife, partner and children are not either so let the team writing this rubbish know. Unless we speak up they will continue to guide us like sheep or sacrificial lambs to a point of no return. You can disagree with what I write on here but it is my prerogative to be allowed to have my say. It's easy to answer these podcasts if you think an answer is required, just log into your QRZ then go to the page and write your message in and tick the box marked post your reply. My view is we are being manipulated by a few who seem to have totally different views on OUR hobby and in this posting VK6WIA should have already posted an open apology. Cheers VK6NO
Why did you lock episode 92 Onno? I left comments in there and an ZL station asked why my link didn't work and YOU provided a link to NEWSWEST but not to your podcast here as I was about to reply. It's all FRAUD Onno you have the power to alter podcasts as you feel fit. Other hams will confirm I wrote comments in there. To all decent Hams I have now retired from this rubbish as NEWS can be altered to suit the podcast and we are not allowed to spread the truth in life no more.
He did this because he is a liar and trouble maker, i have 12 people sitting on the fence to gutless to put pen to paper . No one likes to hear the truth any more today, very sad this world we live today.
You be waiting a long time old fellow, i know a ham that fronted him face to face and asked what was going on, he just walked away.
