It is also worth pointing out (again) that there is a BIG difference between 
allowing only "local" skimmers at one's own station, and allowing connection to 
a worldwide network of other people's skimmers. Some people only think of 
"skimmer" as the worldwide network- but so far no contest makes a distinction 
between the two cases.

In the case of only a local skimmer there are still situations where a human op 
is better- for example skimmer is not very good at copying weak signals on the 
low bands.
