Thing is, the means by which a given end result may be accomplished are many.

Radio amateurs are an inventive bunch.  If one means is (are?) outlawed, we 
will find another means.  You'll end up playing "whack-a-mole" -- and 
you'll end up with a set of contest rules larger than the International Call 
Book.

Personally, I thought the principles Dick posted made an enormous amount of 
sense.
