Words Have Meaning

<blockquote>We will ask you to show two types of acceptable identification, one bearing your photograph. The identification presented must be current, must contain sufficient information to confirm that the applicant is who he or she claims to be, and must show your street address.</blockquote><br />n<br />nThis is an excerpt from the letter my Darling Wife was upset about. We really don't care about finding our 911 address that's not a big deal. But by reading the above it says, "The identification presented …..and must show your street address." I do believe the way this is stated the ID's presented must have the physical address. Wouldn't you agree?<br />n<br />nI had to run to town today so I stopped and asked the people at the post office how my ID was supposed to have this fact, physical address, when all acceptable ID's list the PO Box I am trying to keep. I was informed it didn't matter if my ID's matched the physical address, just that I had a physical address and two of the ID forms. I pointed out the wording of the letter doesn't indicate that. She stated the letter never said the ID's had to have the physical address on them.<br />n<br />nI walked out at this point and didn't say a word. I guess this dumb cowboy can't read or understand the English language. Hopefully they won't change their mind on this before I get the form and their precious two forms of ID in.<br />n<br />n<b>Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have different effects.
