Uniques in SS are unique in a way.  It always seems like one does work more 
uniques in SS than in other contests, especially those long Sunday afternoons.  
In SS, you have a serial number.  If the Unique QSO in SS has a serial number 
of 1 and it is not near the beginning of the contest, it probably is unique.   
If a QSO comes up as unique and the serial number is some number greater than 
1, it probably is a busted call.  With the added information of the exchange 
the software could probably match it up.   I would hope that the log checking 
software would incorporate some of this fuzzy logic into its checking.
