Indeed, I had that same problem when I lived in Virginia. I did not become aware of the laws restricting the use of SSNs until after I had been issued my license, and I didn't want to go in to have it replaced. This is one reason I was really happy when I moved to Maryland, and found that they issued their own license numbers, which I believe was based on a soundex code from your last name, plus perhaps some other identifying information. -- Brad Knowles, /* efdtt.c Author: Charles M.
