And if his log says he sent an 8?

So if I send zone 23people will get credit for zone 23?  I don't think so.

There is no need in WW to really copy a report.  What the heck is eee or 
enn anyway  what is it conveying?   In previous discussions about this 
same issue many felt like the 599 helped get you ready for the other 
information.  Why bother with rst and zone at all. Lets just copy 
callsigns and call it good.  CQ W0MU    WA3AAA   CQ W0MU  WA2AAA ?   The 
Callsign will tell us the zone in most cases.  Nearly every call we work 
probably is a known call in QRZ or some other form of database.
