What was the ORIGINAL intent of Contesting???? CD Parties, SS and
others.....I have always been brought up that this was an EXERCISE to test and
improve the ability you could exchange information CORRECTLY in times of an
EMERGENCY. SS was a good one for this because of the amount of info you needed
to correctly copy and send.
I would think that during an EMERGENCY how many people would want someone to
copy something "Half-Assed" (Can I say that??) pass the info anyway and then
send a corrected version 4 weeks later!!!
Hmmm.......But times have changed and I think we have all lost what the
ORIGINAL intent of all this stuff was for...Its now a competition of who can be
the most creative AFTER the contest.
Just an Idea.....
What was the question again????
