A simple Flight to ACY
"Blueskies" wrote Good job...can't believe you left the hangar open and the car outside... The think about the car in the scene is that he did not obscure the plate. Lots of bad people can do bad things with information like a plate associated to a name. That would be something to be fixed, IMHO. -- Jim in NC |

Lots of bad people can do bad things with information like a plate associated to a name. That would be something to be fixed, IMHO. What can you do with it? It seems like it would be relatively easy to find the name that belongs to a license plate, even through something as simple as watching the owner to see what house he goes into. I'm curious as to what kind of bad things can be done, and how you defend against it. -- Mike Ash Radio Free Earth Broadcasting from our climate-controlled studios deep inside the Moon |

While you could tail someone, that's a lot harder than it looks in movies. And I've never lived in a state where the dept of motor vehicles would give you info on a plate just for asking. It's pretty easy to understand why. |

Made up some story about a hit and run in a Sears Parking lot and claimed to have gotten the number of the car that did it. His mother got the address from the state police and called the guy up. Poor ******* was hundreds of miles away.... Bertie |
