- How about running a demagnitizer or strong magnet over your new license as
- soon as you get it? The grocery checkout swipes it through a couple times,
- oh well, have to pay enough attention to type in the info by hand. How
- quaint and old-fashioned. If/when you get pulled over, cop mumbles, you
- mumble back promising to get another (must be my eelskin wallet ;-)
-
- I hope they deep-six the stupid plan, but California's got it, so Illinois
- will have to be "progressive", too.
