Please, don't all jump in at once with all the unproven

Let's hear it for the mode that saved the Titanic survivors
in 1912...
Don't know about whether it saved any lives or not, but I once took a very
important NOTAM (Notice to Airman) on CW from a guy in the Aleutians in the
days following the 1964 quake and put it on the proper teletype circuits
for him.
His airport's altitude was changing so that charts and other info were
inaccurate.
