[CQ-Contest] USA stations in ARRL DX

[KI9A at aol.com]

As contesters, we are always being called arrogant, among other names.  
Ignoring a station would just solidify that  arrogance.  We need  a positive 
image among non contesters, ignoring a calling station isn't the  way to do 
it.  
 
Work 'em.

I should  add, that it occurred to me there's a scenario where Albert's  
idea  does make sense (just so you know I'm not totally picking on you,   
Albert).

If you're blessed with any kind of a pileup, choosing to  answer  
stations that count for points is your prerogative. The  same-country  
guy should get the message and shouldn't feel  slighted.

It's when you CQ in the face of your lone 50over9 respondent  that  
you're not being  polite.
