Come on guys, when was the last time you even saw a card deck, never mind dropped one?
Ditto for the numbers in columns 73-80. If you have a source management system, you don't need to use these numbers to track changes, the source manager will do it for you. If you don't have a source management system, a source comparison tool (SUPERC works just fine, and it's free with ISPF) will tell you all you need to know.
