Default If you had to use CW to save someone's life, would that person die?

Sorry... my bad... is it 35 now? I stand corrected.

Back to the chant...

If you can't do 35wpm, you should stay off the bands!!
Seriously people, think about it... do *you* want blood on your hands
because you're a slow-beepin loser?
Lives are on the line, in case you aren't paying attention.

This is serious business and requires a dedication as if it were... your
only purpose.

Unmotivated 25wpm losers need not apply.

And as previously stated, slow equals death. If you can't do 20wpm you

20 is SLOW. But the only way to learn 35 or 40 is to learn 10, 15, 20
etc.
And the best way to do that is get on the bands and DO it instead of
making
rude noises at the people who CAN.

Phonetics on SSB are usually a lot slower than 20wpm, though.
