I wish it were the case the people were verifying spots but if that were the 
case, I would have to feel like I was the only one saying "what's your call?' 
or CL?? many times as I hear a dozen stations come on and work a station not 
signing.  You can tell that many were not in the original pile-up but are just 
pointing and clicking.  There is no way they would know the call except for the 
spot.

In my estimation, WELL over 50% of the point and click crowd does not verify 
the call before moving on.  If they did, they would not be willing to wait 
there for 10 calls without identifying station.
