As I was fretting over the nearly 100 DL cards (mostly from WAG contest) in my
most recent buro delivery, many from whom I've worked and QSLed many times, I
came across a card from a young DL ham to appeared to be a pre-teen in his
photo. Made my day.

While this may upset the sentimentalists, the paper cards no longer serve any
purpose.
If a paper card encourages a ham to stay on the air, then that is purpose
enough for me.
If a paper card encourages fraternalism, then that is purpose enough for me.
If a paper card makes the day of one recipient out of fifty, then that is
purpose enough for me.
Contest Exuberantly,
