I find it most interesting that the "art" of CONTESTING *could* actually be 
carried on without radios, just as other aspects of amateur radio *can* 
presently be carried on without contesting.  It would work better, of 
course, if all participants were on ultra-high speed bandwidth connections :-)

That may be an understatement.  It is doubtful many in the world would 
prefer to return to the days of horse & buggy transportation vs. 
automobiles, but I' ve recently observed a mindset about futuristic 
enhancements to contest logging software that would suggest some ops are 
possibly considering going backwards in time.
