QSL's:LoTW Please! Its much more efficient and kills no trees!
If you send a paper card (with SASE, please!), I will (eventually) respond in like manner. I do Ham Radio to get away from work and I do enough paperwork at work!
If you need a paper card back right away for an award, please let me know (on the envelope!) and I will do my best to expedite a return card. Yes, I am behind! Please DONT send me any money! Its my pleasure to return my card to you.
But if you were using LoTW, you would have your confirmation by now! :)

Did you work me as 9V1/W4LT? If you sent your QSL confirmation via LoTW, I have already uploaded the complete log set from that operation and you should have your confirmation. I was active with this callsign in mid June to mid July of 2010. PLEASE NOTE: 9V1/W4LT operated from RV Dorado Discovery, a ship in Singapore waters. Due to the shipborne operation, contacts with 9V1/W4LT DO NOT QUALIFY for DXCC credit!
