I strongly agree, Paul. I consider contests like CQWW to be about the
dumbest around, and to require the least operating skill. If you get the
call right, you're done except for QSOs from countries with more than
one zone (and for US operators, that's a pretty small fraction). And
even then, how hard is it to copy a 1-2 digit number?

Why do we persist in exchanging known, redundant information?
Contest sponsors need not complain about pre-fills when the
exchange is known, with near certainty, in advance. How
about introducing some unknown element in contest exchanges?
