Dale did have a great sense of humor. To testify of this I will soon
unveil my disquise. Usually just prior to some of the Phone games when I
knew 75-m would be cohabited by contesters and non-contesters I, using my
alias, would post a message to the CQ-Contest reflector relevant to the
particular game which, usually (but not always) created controversy and
struck several funny-bones (as evidenced by the e-mail replies). Dale
was always quick to reply with something equally hillarious and
controversial. The subject was always about non-contesters,
affectionately known by some contesters as "pig-farmers" and how all of
us could and should co-exist on 75-m peacefully. He was successful in
getting his point across by using humor. I don't think I saved any of
the e-mail exchanges we had or I'd include a sampling of some of his
funniest stuff. May he RIP. God bless his family.
