Another punch card question.
Of those who've read cards recently, was moisture a problem? i.e. did
the cards ever swell due to moisture and then jam, or was this not a
problem? just curious.
Never had a problem with this. Most of the problems I have are cards that
have not been stored appropriately and have bent or otherwise deformed
over time. It's a bitch having to bend them back flat (a process of
bending with my hands, over my knee, and in some cases when they just
won't cooperate, whacking them repeatedly over the edge of a table).
