Re: Drivers License on the Internet

Okay, I admit it. I checked it out in all seriousness when someone e-mailed me the site, and fell for it.

However, it worked just fine when I entered George W. Bush's name*

Seriously, what makes the joke less funny is how plausible it first appeared when I got the e-mail. After I fell for it, thirty seconds' worth of actual mental effort told me what a boob I was. Even an attempt to create a site publishing people's names, addresses and pictures--never mind drivers license numbers--would result in an immense public outcry. Hell, just threatening to publish women's weights would result in the organization's building being burned to the ground.

*Sorry. No way on Earth I could resist that one, Republican or not.
