Around here they'd ask for your phone number for a while.
I generally would give, like 555-1234 but often would get rejected as the number would not match my address.
Real PIA, however not currently being done.

Just marketing profile, not a factor if they will or will not sell you the product.

Actually . some product can be witheld . There is one service station here that you have to enter the correct zip code into to get gas. If not the right one,then the pump wont start. This is to crosse check the zip with the card for our protection. Im too lazy or what not so I avoid that station now.

No one has mentioned the law or Act which requires one to show ID to buy certain cough meds..... It's the Patriot Act.

I was a Patriot and used that word long before it was taken over.

Nor has anyone mentioned the ordeal of boarding a domestic flight nowadays.

The smoking / nonsmoking idea does not work, except where there is a physical separation. Many restaurants were not prepared to go to that expense..

Up here the government stepped in and MADE bars get air cleaning devices and/or make a seperate smoking area. These poor owners went through great exspenses to follow the rules, then shortly after laws where passed for no smoking. WHAT a waste of money for the owners, don't ya think

I haven't been to an airport in 15 years and have no intention of ever going there again. Being xrayed, frisked, undressed, and generally disrespected just isn't worth it!

try writing see I.D on the back of your credit card around here and going to the post office. They will not except it unless signed at certain places, although I think it is the best idea yet.
