[CQ-Contest] Borrowed callsigns

     I know several big contesters who have "borrowed" the callsigns
of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their 
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign 
(with the other party's permission, of course.)  

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?
