Section News is to Traffic Handlers as Line Scores are to Contesters.  They
don't have any idea what all our excitement is about, either.

Which is part of the problem, of course - we all have our hobby niches and
don't necessarily participate in or interact much with the others.  Ham
Radio, somewhat a victim of its own technological success, has grown so
broad that it is easy to lose touch with some aspects of the hobby.

I would not suggest that we reverse that success, or that we all try to do
everything, but that in the heat of debate we do try to remember that we are
part of a community of diverse interests - all important to their adherents.
