Hi,

About the credit card, yes it is confidential, yet, you can't deal with the govt. that easily if you want to raise a voice. It's a real troubling isssue in US, already, where they use Social Security Number (SSN) to identify a person. Initially, it was meant not meant to be an identification number, and so do they (usual noisy lot) want it to remain. Instead, right from the Credit card companies to the bankers, to the lawers, everybody is asking for it. 

We are a lucky lot that we didn't have any such centralized scheme yet. But I wonder, with voter ID, are we going the same way?

Getting back to the credit card number, it is supposed to be kept confidential. Even the people you are dealing with are not supposed to have a hold of the same (remember, the card reading machines, and the helpful dealer who says, please let the machine read your card?). Anyway, the point of the whole story is--you just can't escape. So, don't try. Give the IT dept. guys what they want. Usually, it doesn't mean much, anyway, and if it does, it will!

Regards,
Pankaj
