The cool thing is that you'll get the QSL card before you have the QSO.
If no QSL comes, don't bother with the QSO.

But, if you *do* get the QSL card, you *must* make the QSO. No
excuses allowed. If you don't, you rupture the space-time continuum,
cause the entire Universe to end, and are cited by the Causality
Police and must pay a stiff fine.
