When someone tells me "QSO B4" I just spin the dial and let them get 
the NIL in their log. Maybe some day they will learn. No skin off me 
& they get any penalty. Takes too long to argue, I might miss 2 or 3 
more Q's by taking the time to make someone admit they might be in 
error. But hey, it's your log and your score.
