Did you read the thread?

http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/CQ-Contest/2000-09/msg00035.html

It and several of the related ones that kicked the thread off were all
about the 'penalty thing'.  

And while I am here talking about the 'penalty thing' again
I just noticed this nice post by N6AA on the reason for the

stated as much in the past few days.
