        It's called a PHOTOCOPIER.  Copy the other card so you can use
the top paragraph as a separate card when you wish.

        Then the card is not really as good as you think it is now is
it.  You can't make the ev say something that it doesn't without treading
on ethincally unstable ground.  Do more research to find the ev to
support your DA idea.  If no ev exists to support it in the way you want,
then don't run the DA!
