Thanks WA8ZTZ.....
Thanks for your comments...your perspective from an historical point of view is a very good observation and contribution.
Some of this is just human nature that can be found in any organization.
However, in Ham radio, the seeds for much of this was planted long ago with the so-called "incentive licensing" with all of the various license class. Some how or other attaining your own exclusive slice of HF spectrum became the quest of Ham radio. What really resulted was an attitude that somehow you weren't a real Ham if you possessed a "lower" class license.
So, tired of hearing (not so much on this forum but elsewhere) "I have 50 years experience....". Which implies a license class that required a code test probably in front of an federal examiner. My question... Is that really 50 years experience or rather one year fifty times? None of us are so smart that we know everything. There is always something new to learn if you have an inquiring mind.
IMHO, there should be only one class of Ham ticket and let water seek its own level.
