[Dx-qsl] Received today

[Alan C. Zack]

Norm:
I always send the DX station/manager my Intl size SAE and GS/Euros/IRC as
required.  If you ever get a card for me hitch-hiking with one of yours,
send me an email and I'll send you a SASE to ship it to me.  Don't trash
it.  You don't really know for sure how it got to you.
BTW, the days of the 3 cent stamp are not gone.  Soon you will need the 3
cent stamp to add to today's 34 cent stamp for the new postage rates coming
up.
