It seems to me that the answer to my college roommate's (K4QPL's) 
concerns is that DX stations are already included.  I was just trying to 
encourage their participation, thinking from the point of view of the 
"left out" DX participant in the Eu and A-P Sprints.  DX stations in 
NAQPs count for points, but not for mutlipliers.  A US station who 
operated in NAQPs and tried to work a lot of DX would be a fool if he 
cared about the score because they count as 0 multipliers.  An east 
coast DXer could work DX all day long in a NAQP (if that were possible 
with 100 watts and a down cycle) and his score would be zero since he 
would have zero multipliers.
