   GM Roy,   
      
   RW> Today, CW is a lost art, with less and less amateurs able to copy   
   RW> it.   
      
   I didn't know it before but now I do. I'm an art lover, I love Morse.   
      
   RW> In fact, learning to copy past the 'wall' at 13wpm wasn't as easy as   
   RW> it was to learn to recognize words instead of characters.   
      
   There's no trick involved, it comes naturally when you use it.   
      
   You start with learning single letters, then progress to recognise some   
   common "words" like RST, QTH and name. After that phase you begin to   
   "store" the operators name and qth in your head and continue from there   
   to recognize several words at a time and finally you arrive at the stage   
   where you copy first whole sentences and finally entire paragraphs.   
      
   I admit that I have lost at least the paragraph copying because of not   
   having trained that in a long time but it will come back with training.
