[CQ-Contest] "It's just to save on typing"

[Art Boyars]

When I saw the post about Call History Files for SS, and then saw the post
for the site where you can get them, I was tempted to put in some bogus
data -- change CK 60 to CK 69; change name Art to name Ari.  But I'm not
quite that cranky.  Yet.
