In sweden you can get all this, their passport photograph, the names and adressed of their siblings and other relatives, their school grades, criminal record, any letters they've sent to any government agency ever, what weapons they own, if they've got a driver's licence, how much they pay in rent, maps of their properties, or any parking violoations they've acquired.
Of course most of these take a few phone calls.
- criminal record
- any letters they've sent to any government agency ever

I think openess is a good thing. For instance, I can find out how my tax money is being used.
The PM's income over the last 3 years: http://skatt.bt.no/index.php?search=...enavn=bondevik
Mayor of Oslo: http://skatt.bt.no/index.php?search=...itlev-simonsen
Now why did the PM make less money last year (~$120 000) than the mayor (~$210 000)??CSPA

My old phone number doesn't work (I just cancelled my home phone a couple of months ago).
But my mom's number does work and comes up on map quest correctly.

Space05us you probably live in the most remote place of anyone on Apolyton. I've always wondered why people actually live in northern Alaska. It's freezing cold during most of the year, it's dark 24-7 during some part of the winter, there is nothing out there but flat ground and snow, there are hardly any people there, and there is nothing to do."The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Well how come people actually live there?"The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau
