Alright, but the other ham should also not assume that I send out 
QSLs just for the fun of it.

Call me an old grump if you like, but I resent this pressure put on 
us hams mostly by the ARRL to send QSLs willy-nilly all over the 
world. "A QSL is the final courtesy of a QSO". Says who? If someone 
buys into that, fine, and if not, that's fine too. I can be talked 
into things, but I'll be darned if I will be pressured against my will.

So there. Back to non-grump :-) mode.

73, Bill W6WRT
