  2. Re:Underground in a coal mine on Reading Slashdot From Strange Locations · · Score: 1

Shortly after the crash was reported many hams in our area began checking into our local net to offer their services. Our services were not requested, but they were offered. There were distasters in the past that our help was greatly neeeded, and we provided our assistance.I would like to know if the amateur radio community was involved in communications in NYC.

  8. Re:Sliderules on The Sliderule As Paleo-Geek Artifact · · Score: 1

    In a lot of k-12 schools calculators are bought for *every* student starting out in kindergarden.
