That seems needlessly pedantic. If your government ID is a passport or (at least in the states where I've lived) a driver's license, a permissible form of ID is for someone else with another ID to say that he or she personally knows you. Back when I first applied, if the passport official knew you, that was all the ID you needed. _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
