Interesting.  I apparently didn't get the facts straight.  A bar code
card 
use to identify yourself when purchasing is reasonable IMHO.  This way
they 
can quickly determine if you've bounced checks with them before.  You
make 
a good point about cash purchases.  You should be able to do this 
"anonymously".

Thanks,
John
