R: R: [CQ-Contest] Highest ever rate ?

[Jimk8mr at aol.com]

The idea of higher points for qsos across continental lines has clear 
problems as has been outlined here in the latest outbreak of this topic.  
There is, however, a way to largely correct this inequity without the 
complexity of a total distance based scoring system:

Give higher points for qsos outside one's ITU region.  

This way there is at least an ocean's worth of distance required for extra 
points, disregarding the point proving exceptions of  sparsely populated 
places like far eastern UA0-KL7, central UA0-South Asia/JA, or the Persian 
Gulf.
