I believe this is most important, and has always been thought to be a 
valuable technique in *any* mode of QRQ copying The famous McIlroy ( 
spelling?) was said  only to start typing in his QRQ ( 70 wpm!) runs after a 
few words had been sent.


Clearly much practice is required, and unfortunately the technique is not 
really valuable ( well I mean necessary I suppose) outside the WAE contest, 
and this is only once a year. Some kind of simulation is clearly necessary!
