I used to be a 95% CW op, but, Tom and other like-minded listers, times do 
changwe.

I wish that they would have kept a code requirement at least for the Extra Class 
exam.  I'm afraid that in 20-30 years, CW will be non-existent.  Yet, on the 
other hand, with the average age of the amateur being what it is, if we don't do 
all we can to pump some young blood into the hobby, it may be hard to find a QSO 
in 20 years.
