The same happened earlier with PZ5RA. He delivered a real 
fire-and-brimstone sermon to the unruly mob before going QRT... and even 
while he was typing, some people were still calling.

Again, some of these weren't newbies, but on all contest modes there is 
a new breed of "no-hopers" who click on a cluster spot and then call and 
call with no realistic hope of a reply.

But the worst thing of all is: WE are the experienced contesters who 
should have taught them better.
