Really, you must be kidding, if you are from this (business) planet. From the original post:
"I was speaking a forgotten language. A business card. How precious."
You were probably meeting with a couple of rubes who were unprepared for the realities of the business world. Surprised by a business card? No, this isn't the 24th century. We still exchange bits of paper with our contact information. Everyone does. I collect about fifty cards a month and hand out 4 or 5 for every one that I get. Most of them (mine and the ones that I receive) get tossed out, but that's the way of business cards.
