Each have their pros, cons and applications.

All residents have a long-term interest in supporting and enforcing our current security/control/use of our amenities.

It has proven to be a good system not really broken.

I come to this conclusion as someone who has made a living integrating transaction ID methods as the technology has advanced.

Sure, as a matter of personal convenience, keeping many copies in digital format would be great!

Another excellent post from you, sir.
