Okay folks.  So I admit, that having a bizzarely keen memory, I recalled Rick's 
memo from 
last year citing the same topic and same solution.
So now, I'll dig even deeper into the past (1998) when this was topic was also 
discussed
(including me).  Here, I address the "opposing" view, cited by those who were 
"NIL'ed."
Check it out:

Also...in 2005 I again responded to this same topic, trying to refute the 
"logic" of "lost time."

I think the above still stands.
Moreover, to show that I am not just a brick wall, I posted this (and got 
positive feedback
too):

Finally, have any you formally sent your opinions in to any organizing sponsor? 
 While the name
of this reflector is "CQ Contest," I'm sure you know that is has nothing to do 
with CQ.
