Write to a notecard? Persistent state data?

I think the answer is "no", but is there any way to write to a notecard (or create a new notecard) from a script? I know that lots of little writes is bad, because the backend has to create a new notecard every time, and the server load would be high. But how about creating a new notecard in one step from a bigass string variable?

Failing that... what do people do for persistent state information that can survive from one run of the script to the next?

no notecards are rom

you can store all kinds of tiny data inside the primitive peramaters, such as texture offsets ect and 127 charaters in the prims discription feild

other than that your looking at offworld storage, such as a web host with database support
