Boiled Owls 

A night-owl radio operator who has been operating all night until morning or routinely does so. Often aged, but not always, and unlike the unrelated description of a female human, this definition has little to do with appearance other than that it may be disheveled and more to do with a ragged state of body and mind. "Boiled" ostensibly due to heat and radiation from the transmitter(s) as well as suffering the effects of excessive coffee and cigarettes. An official image of a Boiled Owl exists on the cover of December 1923 "QST" magazine.

Call sign KW2O, meets monthly in members homes, membership limited to about 15 persons as that is what can fit in a typical home. No doubt of the kind who stay up all night feverishly operating high powered radio equipment in order to make as many "contacts" as possible.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
