Its just as hard for me in W1 to work South East Asia or Central Asia on 160M.  
As you say, I have hardly ever heard them in 20 years.  I just don't complain 
about it.  I accept it and look forward to accomplishing the task some day.

But there is an important difference of magnitude that you refuse to acknowledge -- from W1/2/3/4, there are FAR more countries, and far more active hams within 3,000 or 4,000 miles than there are from W6/7. So you have no reason to complain -- the deck is stacked in your favor by a ratio of at least 4:1.
