Yeah, that no DX remark was out of line, but I have a whole repertoire left over from my CB daze like "I'm NOT your good buddy!" so I simply would have asked "If there's no DX why would I be calling CQ DX?" just to tweak his beak. Speaking of dazed leftovers there's "one way skip" that always amused me. So maybe the DX is under a dog pile I can't hear like the only 6M DX contact I couldn't make... to Africa. That's how I saw it, he was going back to one right after another and he was the only station on frequency I could hear, you don't get Africa every day on ANY band and 6 is difficult at best.
Oh yeah, I've been a grumpy old bastid for THAT long! It must have been the RF exposure that did it... starting with this RF and nitro fumes that made me just a little bit crazy. (;->)
