If anyone really wants to use Morse Code, can't they still ? To me it's like
requiring a sixteen year old to learn French <s>, or requiring the metric
system be used exclusively. If someone said you had to only read with your
left eye, or eat only potatoes on Tuesday, would that be a bad thing <s> ?
If you really have to use Morse Code, or you really enjoy using morse code,
then by all means do so, but why burden someone else with it if they only
really want to talk to someone with their voice ? Or perhaps we should
mandate that only vacuum tubes be used in amplifiers, or only ether be used
for anesthesia in hospitals. I feel like we have too many people dictating
to others. Soon we will only have digital tv to watch, another dictate. When
it is all said and done, the world is not going to end if amateur radio
dies, any more than if morse code disappears, vacuum tubes disappear, or
television disappears replaced by mental telepathy.
