[CQ-Contest] Scourges of Contesting, Chapter #?

[Felipe J. Hernandez]

Ed,

It is some  weird sense of humor.. This is supposed to be fun and I
don't know if the people
Who criticize are really promoting new ideas..

I guess everyone is right...

Maybe I'm missing some humor here, but one of the first hard lessons I
learned as a new
commercial captain was NEVER to allow a drunk on board. 

On the other hand, if the post is not some weird sense of humor, I
think both the TJs exercised extrodinarily judgement in not buying
beers for you.

A drunk on the ground is bad enough, one on your airplane is a
nightmare! One on the reflector defies description.
