LOL. Our supermarket cashiers are required to scan everyone's ID for
a liquor purchase, no matter how old they look. They should fix their
system so they don't have to scan it every time...just the first time,
and then it's in the data base, like they do if you write a check.
I'm 72, and have gray hair, and they scan mine.
