Of course not.  However, if we got even a fraction of a percent of 
them, we would be way better off.

Yes I do get the idea.  

Bill - please don't take this the wrong way, but continuing to list 
reasons why we can't or shouldn't, is not going to get us to the 
solution.

We need some creative thinking.  I am very serious when I say that I am 
afraid that ham radio is going to die off as we get older unless we do 
something about it.  It's happening now.  We need to fix it.

Come on!  There's a huge amount of brain power in the contesting 
community - let's come up with some new ideas!
