catfish...I'm not nit-picking you here, but the FCC did not say 
either. What they did say in the NPRM was that morse code would no 
longer be a requirement for TESTING for an amateur license. Where 
this MAY lead to is totally up to speculation. Contesting nor CW is a 
requirement for anyone but if anyone thinks CW is anywhere near dead, 
just join, or tune in during just about any of the popular 
contest...it is a LONG way from being a dead mode of choice.
