Contests are teh ebil.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
All joking aside, actually they are good because they help increase band usage stats. I generally have no interest in contests but I don't whine about them.. If I don't want to contest I do one of the following...
1) Find a quiet and engage in a conversation with someone.
2) If a contesters contacts me give him a signal report and invite him to join the conversation. If he accepts fine, if not then so be it.
3) If the bands are overcrowded and there is no way to avoid the contest and I don;t want to join then simply shut the radio and come back when its over. Beats contesting the contest.
I don;t see why some people make such a fuss over it.

I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
