In the late 1970s my wife and I came home from a party about midnight.  I 
decided to listen to the ham bands a bit, and I heard a call from Guyana.  I 
called and worked them. We later exchanged QSL cards.

Several years later while driving to work I suddenly remembered the QSO and the 
events that had happened since.

I rushed home and dug out the QSL card.  There is was. PEOPLES TEMPLE 
AGRICULTURAL PROJECT.  I had worked the station associated wit the Jim Jones 
settlement whose residents later committed mass suicide.

Not rewarding, but definitely crazy.
