Well said. Bean links something called 'ham radio' with 'gentlemanly traditions', thereby putting 100 years of female emancipation at risk [1], but nevertheless he does not hold a licence that describes either 'ham radio' or a 'ham licence'. By his logic he is not a gentleman!
[1] not relieved by referring to all and sundry by the feminine.
Well, I for one don't agree that Mr Reay's contributions comprise 'rather silly and childish outbursts'. I also don't agree that whatever he posts here should 'reflect' on his children, who do not post here. Your attitude to this is, IMHO, disgraceful. Take Mr Reay on and beat him if you can. I for one doubt you can. But I believe at a minimum you should apologise for causing concern where none should have been raised, like the 'gentlemanly traditions' of which you are so fond of would demand. HTH.
Talking about rewriting history, I found this rather interesting thread from a few years ago (well just over seven actually). I'm sure you'll remember his stance on Amateur Radio and how it is most certainly not dying...Oh and his views on Morse...

LOL!
I like the bit where he says "Why do we need a further exam for incentive licensing? Do we not have enough already?.... (1) CB licence as an appetite whetter (2) Novice licence (3) RAE."
Why is this stuff being cross-posted to uk.railway? No-one here cares!

***And no-one cares in uk.radio.amateur, uk.rec.models.engineering or alt.engineering.electrical
Only because they're an easy target.. What could be simpler using children for personal gain and for abuse?

Please go and good riddance.
They would find a gutter personality - airy r. bean.
Well, all I can say is that if he darkens the doors of ukmodeleng & perpetrates the kind of behaviour he has displayed here, the shrift he will receive will be very short indeed.

As a regular reader though only occasional poster to this group may I offer an independent and disspassionate view on all this without predudice or intended unneccessary offence.
You are a total prat who is destroying one of the best groups on usenet. Why the f*ck don't you emulate the oodlum bird and disappear up your own asshole.
You are a LIAR
No, YOU are a LIAR
No, I'm not lying when I call you a LIAR
Yes you are. If you call me a LIAR, then you are lying.
LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE
No, you're the LIAR
No, I am telling the truth; you are the LIAR
But if you call me a LIAR, then you are lying; and, I am telling the truth when I call you a LIAR
LIAR
No, YOU
I am sure you have expressed the views of a lot of people there, including my own.

Now, I'm sure he will try to 'explain' his postings but there are many other made under his various false names.
Stupid boy.
Stupid boy.
Grow up.
I think that you'll find that I am not squabbling, but am asserting the right to reply, in each case.
Recently you yourself accused me of making attacks on others. I challenged you to come up with evidence. You have failed to do so. Perhaps you are using the Freudian mechanism of projection to accuse me of doing that which you find to be unacceptable in yourself?
My contributions to this NG are entirely technical except when I assert the right to reply to attacks, especially when those attacks are a gratuitous, unsolicited and infantile outburst as is yours below.
If you think that there is a call to keep this NG to matters of technical interest, then I exhort you to think again about your infantile style, as below. It is you and your ilk who are destroying this NG and not those of us who make a stand for civil and polite behaviour.
Stupid boy.
Grow up.
