Jon, I took <Spouse>'s sister to the Amtrak station today where the station master demanded to see her ID before allowing her to have her ticket back to Mt. Pleasant. The conversation went like this: Amtrak: You don't have ID? Sister: No. Amtrak: Not even a school ID? Sister: Nope. Amtrak: How old are you? Sister: Seventeen. Amtrak: Well, you really oughta look into getting some ID. Otherwise, no one will know who you are. He then handed over the ticket.
