       I had one of my bureau cards returned to me just last week.  It was a 
card (for UK8UC) which was sent to the ARRL bureau in the Fall of 2001.  My 
card also had the bar code affixed to the card and there was no postage or any 
other markings on the card.  I wonder if it ever made it to Newington?  I also 
wonder what happened to the other 174 cards which were sent in the same 
package to Newington

The card was in perfect shape.  No wrinkles, folds, bends.....just as crisp 
as the day it was filled out.
