One thing I love about CW contesting is the fast op's.  I love giving and
getting a 45 wpm exchange.  There are a lot out there that can send and
receive a lot faster than that!!  I love it when someone I've worked a
lot over the years comes back at 45 because they know I can copy at that
speed.  Even if they are sending at 20, I hear the keyer crank up for
that contact.  Don't badmouth ops just because they are sending fast.  If
I want to send CQ at 50 wpm, so be it.  Just don't answer if you don't
want too.  There are lots out there what will tho'.  73
