Rudeness on the air

[w6pea]

Earlier today I was in my mobile and talking to a young Ham.....12 years old. He tested last week end and passed his Tech & Gen. I was at the VE site. Anyway to make long story short, there was a net starting in a couple of minutes and this old fart (I'm being polite) says you guys have run into our net time and unless you are have emergency communications it's time for you to clear the air.
Well I usually take part in that net, but you can rest assured I will no longer take part. What a good impression this old Ham gave to a youngster. I thought Ham radio freq. were open to all licensed operators. He could have at least invited the youngster to join in the net. All these guys do is talk about their aches and pains anyway
