I just fired this off to the NAQP CW manager.   Stuff like this is pretty much 
why I quit contesting.

Bruce, 

Back in 1995 when Jay Leno interviewed Hugh Grant after he cheated on Elizabeth 
Hurley with a hooker... the first question he asked Hugh was "What the hell 
were you thinking?"

I can't help but ask myself the same question about the recent goings on with 
you and NAQP CW.   Skimmer?   The NR5M score??  Not rescheduling because of 
ARRL RTTY Round up???   And then going back to the KL9A thing a few years 
ago?????

Bruce... this is exactly why I quit contesting. When people do things like what 
you're doing to K5GA, what you did to KL9A, not rescheduling because of an 
obvious foreseen disaster, and then this whole skimmer thing... it just makes 
contesting not fun anymore.

NAQP CW used to be one of best contests out there.... and now it's pretty much 
completely ruined.

There comes a point in time when common sense should prevail.  It obviously has 
not been exercised at all here.  For the sake of this once great contest, I 
hope you decide to exercise it soon.
