It's called Encounter Tracker, written by Andy Adamczak; the URL and email
address in the readme.txt file that came with the prog are
http://www.teleport.com/~adamczak/ and <adamczak@********.com> though I
think I got a mail from him several months ago telling me that his address
had changed.

It's really cheap to DIY: just get a sheet of paper and have someone put
plastic around it (go to a copy shop for this), that doesn't cost a lot
of money and it's both strong and flexible. Alternatively, get a roll of
sticky plastic, the kind used for book covers, and put that around a
piece of thin cardboard. You should be able to write on either with a
whiteboard marker, just remember to erase it as soon as you don't need it
anymore -- I once had some problems cleaning the sheet when I left it for
a week.
