Explanation to the above. This is a college and university town. Multiples, but 2 big ones. So we have 400,000 people and 50,000 transitory students. They come and go every year.

The drinking age is 19. The youngest students, (every one gets a residence room guaranteed for the 1st year), are 17. They make great fake ID's. The bars have machines, scanners, but at the end of the day the crush at 11:30 p.m. makes it hard to grab them all.

So to see 80 a week in the places I installed computerized scanners is nothing. Monday they cut them in 1/2. Hmmm....

Just make sure no proprietary information is on them...!
