Comments on: An Ugly Answer to Real ID

“It would take someone with a doctorate in design to even consider replicating our new license”
Ignorance is sometimes a blessing… I am not in favor of the Real ID, however you might be surprised what people can do with the technology available today. Hologram, silk screening, laminating machines and magnetic strip programming devices that are readily available on the internet make such tasks simple. Opps, I said the “I” word, maybe since your columns are carried on the ‘net’ you should do a little research… also, there are many gifted designers in the valley, and tossing names around such as “Stephen Templeton” carry little weight with them, just one man’s opinion. Guess it was a slow news day, hehehe.

Just as there are “many gifted designers” in the Flathead, so too are there many who should not comment. It’s not that it can’t be replicated. And certainly, it’s not that anyone possessing the skill set or tools to do so won’t try. Simply put, the new license is so jumbled, so downright ugly, that if anyone were to try and reproduce it they would die of an acute exposure to WHO CARES.
Really? Would the blog have been better had it talked about how quickly some “Johnny Derelict” was going to reproduce it? I think what the good Brown meant was, “We done good wit the new beer-getter.”
Granted, his blogs usually are better. Also, I’m glad that we are only talking about throwing “Temp’s” name around, not his actual person. Dude is big.
