Uh, sorry, but I don't care *WHY* they aren't sending these cards, all
I observe is that they are not sending them.

rectify the matter.  That some companies offer me GDOS as a package deal
with their software is irrelevant.

I'm so glad you know so precisely what I want and need.  You want to
run my life for me too?

Still sorry, but you might want to look up the word fact in a
