Wayne:

In keeping with a number of comments on the list there is something useful 
that Elecraft could do. You might consider a "CW QSO Every day Award;" to 
win the prize, the applicant must make a signed statement that he/she has 
made a CW contact on 365 consecutive days. Instead of checking 365 QSL 
cards, use the Honor System like ARRL does on QRP DXCC. There is not much 
motivation to lie; the reason for bucking for the award would be to do 
one's bit to keep the CW segments occupied. In fact, you might offer a 
sweetened incentive by giving a plaque (perhaps at the applicants expense) 
for anyone who does 30-plus minute daily CW ragchews for 365 consecutive 
days. Maybe post the pictures of the winners on the Elecraft Web site or 
some such thing.

73,
