Well stated by my son, N5TJ.
One could perhaps say the same to those wanting to change the
long-established CQ WW DX Contest by dumbing it down by merging Single
Operator and Single Operator (Assisted).

Agree, SS is a one of a kind contest with a rich history. No reason to
change it, there are plenty of other contests for those that prefer a
different format.

Glenn,
No flames necessary. The problem here is not that your opinion doesn't
matter.
The problem is that there are many others who love SS as it is.
Changing it to be a contest where you work people more than once would
change the contest forever, and many think not for the better. There are
other contests that allow that, so you're not being deprived in any way.
As
N2IC said, if you want to operate that kind of a contest, there is the
NAQP.

I am extremely upset by the whole idea that the rules are off the table .I
was under the impression that we ( the members) told the league what we
wanted to do not the other way around. However I was taught the same thing
in high school about congress and that has turned out to be a rather naive
idea. Why don't we start voting out league representatives who don't
represent the members ?
I have my Nomex suit on so let the flames begin.
