Geez Don,
Talk about someone who is into himself! I guess he finds what most of us love to talk about boring. That's why most receivers have a VFO to change frequency with.
Possibly he's rather talk on 2 meter FM-CB where he can discuss his Hemmoroid operation and digestive problems. Whatever floats your boat I guess!
Or typical SSB appliance operator mentality. Remember, these are the folks who have repeatedly petitioned the FCC to have AM outlawed from amateur radio.
Probably fires up on the exact same frequency night after night, talks to the same 5-6 other hams, about the same uninteresting stuff, and pitches a royal fit if some unsuspecting operator outside his pet group happens to appear on "his" frequency, even if it was not actively in use at the time.
