[TowerTalk] How tall is that tower?

[David Gilbert]

Carl,

You gotta be kidding.  How boorishly lazy and self-centered can you 
possibly be.  It's total crap that only 1% of the people who follow this 
reflector can think in metric.  Besides, you're familiar with, for 
example, the 80m and 40m bands, right?  You think maybe we should be 
calling them the "260 foot band" and "130 foot band"?
