Hi, all.

I have been sending my qsl card template to a number of folks on the list, 
and I have a few thoughts for everyone to consider as you try to use it.

First, I know the entry fields go by quickly as you read the various column 
headings.  My solution to that problem was to make a Braille list, and then 
memorize the ordering of the fields so that I knew I was putting the correct 
information in the correct fields.  It is kind of rudamentary, but at least 
it seems to have worked for me.

Secondly, I checked with my sighted XYL this morning before she left on a 
small trip, and she reminded me that there is indeed a picture on the card 
that will have to be eliminated for those who use the template.  In 
addition, for some reason, the file I sent you does not have an extra line 
or two after the data tables for entering brief comments.  My XYL inserted 
those lines back into the template, so anything I send out now will include 
those additional lines.

Just wanted to clarify those few things.
