I think anybody that even toys with the idea of sitting in front of
a transceiver
for 48 hours continuously is a bit sad, to put it politely.
That's probably why I shall never win one of these contests. Like
Shelby, I think
that life is more important. I do burn midnight oil sometimes, but I
think it is
dangerous to deprive oneself of that amount of sleep. It was a means
of torture
and has been practised as such in the last decade or so in some
instances. To do it
willingly seems pointless.
Just my opinion guys!!!!!
