Kerry,
"By the way, I haven't been on PSK-31in several years primarily because the contacts are almost always "canned" messages and no real communications between operators takes place. As far as I'm concerned it is not ham radio!"
I take it (and I should know without asking" that you don't do much Contesting as all contesting seems to be is "Canned Radio" too. There isn't much else besides Canned Goods" that can be exchanged in a contest situation. My goals are to actually talk to the Islands that comprise the South Pacific where both my dad and I sailed in our times in the Navy. I never actually made port visits to places like Tulagi, Kwajalien, Figi, Samoa, but he did, but at least I can talk to Hams there.
Bob Ritchie said he contacted New Caledonia the other day - good show Bob!!
