Yeah, for $1.97 you can't beat it. Even if it only lasts for a short time before it gets accidentally torn off or sun faded, it's easy and cheap enough to replace...

If I'm floating on top of the water and someone helps me, how would they ever know I had DAN membership and how would they know who to call
I did basically the same thing -- I made a "business card" -- one side has bold black-and-yellow diagonal stripes and the text "In Case Of Emergency". The other side lists emergency contacts, blood type, allergy status, DAN membership. Laminated & zip-tied to my BCD. It hasn't fallen off or gotten water damage in ~100 dives. The same kind of card is zip-tied to the outside of my Aerostich (motorcycle gear) and similar on my climbing harness.
Call me cynical, but it looks like you answered your own question.I am a little mystified by why DAN membership doesn't include a tank sticker; that's good, inexpensive advertising for them. (Yes, I know you can order one from DAN for a small amount, if you're also willing to pay several dollars in shipping for something that costs fifty five cents to mail.)
Something I have often wondered....The EMTs are instructed to take the divers gear with the patient to the hospital or at least any computer and to document the divers profiles and relevant info in the PADI accident worksheet for the hospital.
