[Fists] RE: Fists Digest, Vol 7, Issue 2

WHY ????????? 

The first ltr gets ur attention and the other ltrs roll off like music (if
ur copying at anything over 15wpm). 

The faster it is sent the more melodious the word FISTS. It is in the same
category as the word JUST.

Here is a page on my site with the two words at 30wpm so u can hear both
words and can play them repeatedly for fun.

I have heard many CQ's with "CQ FISTS".  Is there an abbreviation for this
such as "CQ FTS"?
tnx
