Oh, s--l--o--w CW sure gets tedious for me too, but it's normally only for a
few minutes. 

I find that a five or ten minute exchange of basic contact info and a few
words is about all most newbies working at such speeds want. That was
certainly true of me when I was first on the air: after a few minutes I
needed to QRT and relax so I could stop hyperventilating!
