[CQ-Contest] Fwd: KILLING THE GOLDEN GOOSE

[W0ua at aol.com]

Bob,
 
Let's get clear on something here:  I did NOT say (or even suggest)  that 
there was any attempt / intent to exclude anyone from the survey.   What I 
DID say was that even though I've been thoroughly active in WPX (not only  
WPX, but WW also)) CQ Contests, I had no idea this was happening until  tipped 
to it by a third-party.  And, I wondered aloud how many more  there may be 
in the same position.  Maybe I'm the only one?
 
You say that the notice couldn't have been more public.  How  about in CQ 
Magazine, did I miss it there?  My fault and my  apologies if I did; please 
tell me in which issue it appeared?   

Let me say this again--I'm not accusing anyone of exclusionary intent  or 
practice.  Just relating my own experience with it and my  concern that 
everyone who feels he has a stake in the outcome has an  opportunity to be heard.
 
Thanks,
 
Geo
