I was at a multi using packet this weekend for the first time ever, and I'm 
broadly in Eric's corner.  I'd add another reason for spotting a lot, 
though -- Sunday morning, 10 was nicely open but with darned few Non-US/VE 
on it.  I figured that by spotting everyone I was hearing (S&P on 10), 
given the world-wide propagation of spots these days, I might actually 
encourage some folks in Europe to get on 10 who otherwise might have stayed 
on 15.  I don't know if it worked or not, but what the heck -- with modern 
software it's easy enough...
