They had their advantages. 

Given a manual 12 key punch and an optical reader on the computer, making 
small corrections was easy. Punch a new hole or two, smooth chads into 
the unwanted hole(s) and stick the card back into the deck. If you had 
contact readers is was the same except yo put a scrap of sellotape over 
the unwanted hole...

Then again, they were great for shopping lists and bookmarks (there's 
even one or two rather dilapidated ones still living in my cookbook 
collection.

....and two cards and a pencil made a surprisingly good tailless glider.
