But effective. I would suggest a micro-switch under the chin to trigger a small electric shock to the
posterior. This would cause no permanent harm unless the subject jumped from his chair, dumping all equipment from the desk.

I fell asleep at 08:40Z and didn't wake up until 5 minutes before the end of the contest! HOW COULD I DO THAT!?? Things were going so well. I was easily on track to make well over 1500+ Q's and 1 mil plus points. Crap! Next year, yes next year I will have to find some way to stay awake (but the bad thing is that I will be one year older.) :-( In any case, as mentioned before, things did work well, including my new 18HT vertical. It only has 20 radials under it now, but I found myself often beating pileups where I never expected to. All equipment worked flawlessly, except the human interface part. (BTW, a BIG thanks to the wife for letting me do this for (almost) 24 hours!)
