I think our Members of Congress should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers so we could identify their corporate sponsors.

 And then they get your home telephone number and harass the heck out of your family wanting their card
 when you just got the Cards from the printer and don't have the logs yet from the operation
 But Hey QSL managers are supposed to just suck it up right?

 Can someone explain something to me? Is there an underground market for 
 in-USA SASEs? I've dealt with overseas theft of IRCs and green stamps for 
 years. It's part of the equation. But lately, I seem to be having a problem 
 with responses from stateside managers to whom I've sent an SASE. One 
 2-lander (it's NOT N2OO, for sure!) stands out in particular. I worked a 
 station that he manages (actually operated from, I believe). 3 requests 
 since last June have gone unanswered. Email - no reply. WHAT DO THEY DO WITH 
 THE SASE? Do they use it to mail their checks to the bank? Make colorful 
 collages or decoupage the coffee table (that one was the xyls suggestion)? 
 OR do they relable them and send them to other managers as THEIR SASEs?!!
 Or do I take the high road and assume that they are floating around the USPS 
 somewhere, in a postal limbo? I know mail gets lost. I've had mail go astray 
 going across town here in Charlotte. It amazes me, though, that I have NEVER 
 had a request lost in the mail
 going to the likes of W3HNK or N2OO.
 The only consolation is that at least there wasn't a 1ドル.05 airmail stamp and 
 IRCs involved each time.
 (geez, i'm starting to sound like the late Andy Rooney!)
 Anyway. Enough carping. Good luck to everyone in working the Malpelo and 
 Pitcairn operations in the next couple of weeks. And maybe I'll work a C6 on 
 6m this weekend in the contest from whom I CAN get a qsl.
