first format is in 2012 & the month,

the second format is just 12 on the right side sticker (this is the one i got) because my DMV

car registration address is different from the license address so i always get the car reg. renewal in-person, but it seems the calif. gov't is tracking via these two different formats on the license plates sticker

THE FIRST "regular" type of 2012 & month it seems is usually mailed to your home mailing address &

the other type of format 12 & month sticker is received via in-person DMV visit or DMV kiosk.

Looks like this new tracking just started this year, 2011.

You can obtain a Florida (Non-Resident) Concealed Carry permit, it is good in your neck of the woods. The Beautiful thing about them is that even though you are required to update them within 10 days of moving - you can say your traveling instead, or use a friends address. No one will ever check it (unless you do something to warrant it) plus it is a state issued photo ID with no information on it other than your name, photo and the header at the top.. Additionally while other states want to know things like where you have lived for the past 10 years (not kidding) the application for the "Florida Non-Resident Permit" is half of one side of a page. Annitionally instead of taking a class that requires you to use such things as your SSN all the only training certificate you will need is "Hunter Education Course" class that was passed. If you call up the Fish & Game in your state you can often get new cards sent to you sense most of us outdoorsy types take the class when we are in our early teens so we can go hunting. Then you photo copy that card, as your proof of training. The only other thing that is kind of annoying is that you have to get fingerprinted by a LE either in your state. If you call around no one will do it; However if you call the court houses in your area and ask for the "City-Marshal" he will do it for between $15-$25 he doesn't keep any of the paper work other than a receipt that has very little info on it just to keep up with the monatary stuff in his drawer. You can find there website if you search "my license site" when you click on the page you want the forth paragraph down. they have to send you the application as it is issued to you (ssn) however they are not allowed to put that on the outside of your permit card nor are they allowed to furnish that info to anyone except the Fed's (of course) and the processing staff.

I have had one for over 12yrs, anytime I've been anywhere I've called and let them know, but you don't have to because there is no set amount of time for a vacation or traveling while at work. No one ever show up and checks that you live there and if you tell them that whatever ghost address is your residence, but that you would prefer all your mail goes to your PO Box, because you travel a Lot that is no problem with them as - I've been doing it for over a decade - no problems.

Mail Solution: Get a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) class B, the class B is only 5 questions at the DMV and you can use a straight truck (U-Haul) to take the test. Then where ever you happen to be in the world, you call truck stops to see which one's have mail service, some will let you forward all your pail to them for pick up as you pass through for nothing just show your CDL. It also helps get ghost addresses as it makes it easier to convince people that your always gone and gee it sure would be nice if you could swing by and pick up mail from your wife/kids/family. You can also get ordained online and do the same thing with several ministry organizations who help traveling missionaries any way thay can, place to send mail, or a residence to receive packages, etc.

Answer to Mr. JJL's Question: Not only can LE's turn a cell phone's mic or camera on, additionally they can have gain access to your text history, photos, app's, voice msg's, etc.. So can anyone else, (but) they have to be able to access your cell prior to install software. This isn't usually something local LE's do, unless they are part of a task-force, or Fed's, however it would be easy enough for a stalker to get access unless you were very careful about how and where you stored or charged your cell. On most phones it is undetectable unless you hook it up to a computer and really know something about .exe files, unless you have a phone made by apple in which case you will have an extra app appears (dead give-away) on your phone called Cydia, good reason to not have folders upon folders of places for someone to drag and drop it thereby hiding it if only for a time from it's end user.

In phoning Money Network to ask questions about their pay card, they asked to first verify date-of-birth, ss# and address before proceeding at all, all of which is supplied by the employer to this company.

Can you suggest any ways, other than starting our own home-based business (which I am working on), to get around this privacy difficulty? I understand, from several colleagues, that this pay system is becoming fairly standard in many companies.

Your help is appreciated. By the way, GREAT book!

... The main question is, with this system, will your home address be revealed? If not, I wouldn't worry.

I run a home-based online business selling health-related products. Is there any way to get a merchant account that would not be at all connected with my name and SSN?

Everything I sell is above-board and 100% guaranteed but it would be nice to protect my identity from all the crazies and suit-happy people out there.

Thanks!
