David,
The below statement is absolutely true. I am an industrial psychologist
(really), and we have made some discoveries about why certain industrial
processes sometimes work and sometimes don't. One of our earliest
discoveries was the answer to the question: How may psychologists does
it take to change a light bulb? The answer is that it takes only one
psychologist to make the change, but the light bulb must SINCERELY want
to change, and the process may require up to five years of weekly
50-minute sessions before the change is fully effected.
When DXing, remember that the DX LIKES the hams around you more than it
likes you, so you have to wait until the loved ones are taken care of
before you get your turn. This does not always hold when operating CW.
