Rev. Rudy, "Hallowed Preacher of LF (and MF)," pray tell which is "better"
to invest time in?

4NEC2 or EZNEC?

Or is it like studying Koine Greek and common Latin?  Two ancient languages
and it will take you a year to learn to cuss like Caesar the Salad or
Alexander the Grape?

Beware the Eyes of Marsha, Et Tu you brute!  All Gall bladders are divided
in three places, top, middle and bottom.

I remember my classy education.  I dot my I's and J's and Cross my T's and
X's.

Or do I double cross?  I forget.

See I even forget language, no wonder "Mom" told me not to go into
modelling. Dad told me I'd get glue all over my fingers when I put the
plastic model together.
