This is *really* funny.  It reminds me of the people that listen to their automobile GPS's when they say "turn left here" and end up driving on to somone's lawn. <giggle>

Rick said, "I don't see anything unethical, impractical or annoying (at least to me) about it. If a contest sponsor were to outlaw pre-fill databases for a particular contest, I would, of course, observe the rule."

And such is the voice of reason.  When a sponsor says so...I will as well.

As Hans has said in the past, "That which is not outlawed is required."
