>> ... So exactly how do you know what percentage of people requested QSL cards and why would you care?

A voice contact with an orbiting astronaut is an extraordinary event. And I have run into a few operators who had 
no idea that they could apply for and receive a QSL card for their efforts.

How do I know any numbers? I made a phone call to the ARRL manager who has the numbers. Like I always do, 
I use the best-available information ... 

So - What, exactly, is the problem posting the procedure to obtain a QSL card from an ISS contact? 

Clint posts an informative, upbeat, factually correct, on-topic post. And those without as good as Rolodex as I 
possess can't stand it.

And so it goes ...
