You're right, Jerry. Maybe it's bad habits, or he's new, maybe there's a physical impairment, or who knows what. I've had great QSOs with guys sending slowly & with let's just say less-than-perfect CW. One op apologized for his fist saying he had just retired, was getting back into radio, and it was his first CW QSO in over 20 years! I felt lucky to have been the one he ran into. And the funny thing, regarding what you copied, is that it takes a lot more effort to use bad manners than good...
