CQWW and CQWPX are the fastest growing contests in our sport folks.  Those
who think that somehow the lack of a level playing field is affecting the
contest to its detriment have their head in the sand.  Look at the numbers.

Hogwash. Look at numbers by ZONE. Contesters in non-competitive zones vote with their feet. And CQWW is the dumbest contest in terms of operating skill -- for the vast majority of QSOs, if you get the call right, the zone is automatic, and inserted by the logging software. USA is the most notable exception.
