Well just lost another one.  VK9LA on RTTY.  He used my correct call when he 
called me, then when he signed, I copied n8dc. So I kept the hard print on 
file, and sent him an email yesterday, about not getting cards yet.  I had 
called him again, about a half hour later, saw him use my call again, then 
garble, and then "before" and QRM wiped him out.  Figured he had me, but 
tried several times and never made a RTTY again.  He says he didnt log 
either one.  So I pulled up my saved copy, its on a damn Clipboard file, and 
I couldnt get it to copyto the email, In confusion a pop up said there was 
something in the clipboard, and needed to delete it before coming up with 
what I was trying to do. SO I DID IT!.  Yep, it was talking about the one I 
was trying to copy, not another one.  So its gone, and I am left holding a 
blank clipboard window.  I just dont know what MS ws thinking, making a 
clipboard be the one that copies things, and then not allowing you to print, 
or transfer it.  I usually have to go around in rings and manage to get a 
copy but this time it failed.
sigh
