True Tom - but equally Magnus, having asked the question, would not then allow
the questionee (is that a real word?) to um and ah for an extended period while
he/she dredges out the answer from the depths of memory. And, accepting that, on
VHF/UHF in particular it may take a couple of minutes to complete a marginal QSO
(which would be the contesting equivalent of pondering over the answer to
Magnus' question), you have to draw the line somewhere. Hence the rationale as
set out in Steve UFY's recent e-mail.

And to quote he late Magnus Magnusson "I've started, so II'll finish"! Same
should apply to that last QSO.

<Contests are like exams. You don't open your paper
before the start time, and you put down your pen at
the end time.
