This is a wonderful story. It suggests to me that we all ought to start 
calling the 800 line and reporting random license numbers. Everybody 
try to do half a dozen a day. Of course, real plate numbers (preferably 
copied from expensive cars) are best, but make 'em up if you have to. 
Some percentage will turn out to be real.

Anything that increases the cost and hassle of car ownership is a step 
in the right direction.
