Tagging my Flies for GFS2008

I have read the fly swap FAQ but still have some questions on how to
tag my flies. I got them finished up last night and need to know how
do some of you tag your flies? I know it says not to use string to
attach the labels due to tangles when shipping. So what is the best
method?

I print them from a word processing file, "laminate" them with heavy
book tape both front and back, cut them down to size and poke the hooks
through the edge of the tag.

Heh, this dude adds Cutter numbers to the tags as well. Marked up in
xml.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Typical public service librarian ... just doesn't understand the
usefulness of cataloging.
