A couple of years ago they changed the laws here and made it a real pain in the ass... Interestingly enough I could replace my existing license with an updated address online for $30 and very little proof that I am who I say I am... Seems like a pretty fucking ridiculous 'security' if you ask me...

Where in Mass? Geez, I must lose my birth certificate yearly. I don't remember how many times those good people in Framingham have sent me an original. I think I may have paid $5 ONCE. Come to think of it...where the hell is that thing...

Yeah, they just changed shit this year up here, too. You're required to take in all sorts of shit if you want the new "secure" id. However, the majority of people (I think I heard it's above 70%) are opting for the non-secure id. I think the difference is the "secure" id has a bunch of your personal information encoded on the barcode on the back so your id can simply be scanned to prove it's real or some shit.

Actually this is just for a standard DL or ID card in Florida.
