yea, I know Lynda, it's terrible. people just don't think through the
ramifications. Right now, with a name , a hometown, and another similar
point of fact like a phone number or street address, I can pay around $300
and find out 'almost anything' on anyone.

The first time I did a heavy check on a potential business partner it cost
almost ten times that amount and yielded less info than what the cheaper
prices bring today. Anything 'centralized' is easy, easy target and easy
money for the purveyors of information.

Medical records contain everything from rape kits, to abortion reords, to
terminal illness, to psych records. Maybe I should tell my shrink some of
the 'real' crazy sh*t; that way the next time some one checks me out , they
will be even more apprenhensive of me than they currently are when they see
my other available records.

If someone is going money with me , I don't blame them for checking me out--
I don't like it but it is part of the way things are, today. You can't do
business with a stranger on a handshake, anymore,. But, for a g-d d*mn
clerk in some facist gov't beauracry or corporate office to be able to check
out not only my credit, but also the result of my last prostate exam by
punching in a number is a real downer.

I don't like any of this stuff, but there is no getting around it when
medical becomes centralized. The government owns you there, especially after
they become evryone's HMO. Unless you decide that in an emergency you will
let a family member die, there is no getting around not being numbered.
