At some point I got a huge pile of unused punch cards that I used for
draft and assorted notes (I think that the machines were just
scrapped). The paper used for the cards was a special quality (due to
the mechanical requirements of the machines); they were 'soft' but
strong, and quite good to write over. But I could never find more
