But we are not playing HP's "exclusive or" game (even though my silly
language was not a felicitous choice -- hey, I could not help including
yacc & lex in the flow of things and I fell victim to my own syntax :-)

So, one does not preclude the other.  QueryCalc is the obvious choice for
a computerized card.  But, in addition (not in "in exclusion"), I remember
that Carly has a degree in Medieval History.  The calligrapher in question
does a good job with Old-English characters (no pun intended).  So...

In this context, the more avenues we pursue, the better.


Give me parchment AND give me bits!
