     Someone I know around here ran into a problem with a minor
   breaching security on his BBS. (it is a over 21 BBS). The
   best solution that we came up with (mine actually, so I am
   biased) that did not really violate privacy, was to require
   that if a user really want's access, to have them simply submit
   a piece of paper with name, signature and age, and a notary
   public stamp. Getting a notary public's stamp is not difficult.
   (heck, we have, err, had two in my office alone.)
      I don't know if he did this, but anyone have comments?
      Any notary public's out there? Could you stamp a piece of
   paper this way?
