Lloyd,

Congrats.  That is really great.  If I could put half that many in the 
log I would need to buy larger headphones to fit my swelled noggin.

There are a lot of top CW ops on this list.  Some contest, some rag 
chew, or DX, or some combo of both.    I'm not sure I will ever get near 
that level, but you guys give me something to strive fore as I try and 
improve my station and skills.

73, Steve KW3A
