         It is also a wonderful solution for occasional "lost in the mail"
problems.  This year I was sweating getting my ST0RY card for #310 on
160 to ARRL by September 30.  Despite being a major contributor, and
apparently having 3 mailings lost from the manager, I was really happy
when LoTW came online in September.
         Just about 3 days after LoTW was official, of course QSL attempt #3
arrived, so I didn't have to resort to using it, but it sure was
nice to know I could have if I had needed to (assuming the QSL manager
could have gotten the documentation submitted before the deadline).

P.S.  BTW...being a student of grammar, why isn't it LotW (not LoTW) as
in Subject above and on ARRL's own webpage:  http://www.arrl.org/lotw/
