Word to the wise, you may be taking on a responsibility that could last
a long time. But it's for a good cause, don't you tihnk?


This is probably a dumb question, but what has to be maintained? After

all
these years, aren't the FAQs pretty "set in stone"?

Can't I just copy/paste it into a page, and be done?


Youse guys are talking about two different things.

well ....

but what has to be maintained?



the FAQ
plus looking for mirrors, gathering folks around the FAQ-maintainer, maybe
posting the FAQ every month or so, etc. etc.

After all
these years, aren't the FAQs pretty "set in stone"?


and it has to be done by someone being credible and reliable and with at
least some knowledge of internet (IMNSHO) and usenet.

Can't I just copy/paste it into a page, and be done?


and be sure to have permission for what you use.

for example see he http://www.airport-directory.com/faq/index.htm

My original SS card had printed on the face... Not to be used for
identication. How Ironic as the IRS requires a SS#.


Jesus Christ! You still have that? Do you still have your original
pilot's license that was signed by Orville too?

Jay;
If you belong to your local Better Business Bureau, you get the weekly
e-communications. I'm not sure this business only group would be on
such high alert if it weren't actually happening. Very few businesses
are on this bandwagon to make a profit, so although none of your
1,298,066 friends have been victimized, it's still real. Yes, I have
personally heard from one of my customers that she was/is involved in
this. Too much work trying to prove "That's not me!". And to think
of all the owner maintenance I've signed off in the logs over the
years is scary! I changed all my license numbers and strongly suggest
everyone do the same. NEVER give out your SSN to anyone who shouldn't
have it, PERIOD! There is actually a federal law on the books stating
that SSN's are not to be used for record keeping.

You know, I hear this ALL THE TIME -- yet, I've never met a single person
who has actually suffered from "identity theft".

As you all know, I use my real name, my real address, my real email

address
(well, mostly), and the real name of my business -- thus far, with

minimal
hassle. Am I being stupid? Dunno -- but I simply can't bring myself to

hide
behind a phony name.

I *really* enjoy the new Visa commercials, with the guy's voice-over on

the
little old lady -- they're hilarious and really get the point across

about
the risks of identity theft. However, they *are* trying to sell a

product,
and (as a result) the cynic in me rises to the fore. I just have to

wonder
if this whole "identity theft" thing isn't a product of Madison Avenue,

once
again trying to fan the flames of our own paranoia, in an effort to sell

us
something?

Does anyone know a real person who has suffered this fate?

I did. I knew three murderers, too.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."


I interpreted the question as present tense ... :-)

Nothing like that on my work PC. I may have cleared it and trashed it,
presuming it to be spam?

Try again, please!

Go to
http://registry.faa.gov/airmen.asp#R...ofCertificates and you
can download a form to request a new airman certificate that does not use
your SSN as the certificate number. You can even request that the FAA not
use your SSN for any purposes in your airman file.



We have all had that option all along. When I got my ticket back in 76 I had the option to use the SSN or have the fed
assign a number. I chose to have them assign a number...

Do you do this sort of research for a living? If so, please contact me by

email.
Nothing nefarious, I would simply like to find out if a particular person

is
still alive.


Careful now, you did say that you knew three murderers, want to make it
four? ;-
