    Declan,
    
    Good column and info, but the true irony remains unmentioned.
    
    Vermont is the only state where an individual can have a non-photo driver's 
    license, for any reason, no questions asked. (Other states have various 
    restrictions.)
    
    Indeed, if you want the photo, it'll cost you $5 extra.

    The very independent people of Vermont have decided that not everyone needs 
    or should be required to have a photo ID card. Why their ex-Governor is not 
    on board remains a mystery to me.
    
    James
