Where possible, I routinely "update" my exchange from the last contest, just 
to confound those who use "pre-loaded" data file crutches.

E-mail chatting with N4ZR, who has relocated from WV to MD.  Pete muses
that a lot of people who rely on SCP or Call History (or whatever it is)
"to save on typing" will bust the QSO by logging him as WV.

I can see it now -- a cry for making the data files official; perhaps
prohibiting people from relocating or using a different name.

"All participants must register in the official Call History File.  Your
log must contain the data as reported in that File.  Scoring will be in
accordance with that File."

Just think of all the typing we'll save!

who hopes you took this in fun (sort of)
