Too costly Dew. The DNR should consider selling, and I know it would take legislative approval, a sportsmens license which is a one time license that then provides a dedicated identification number that is then used for all purposes like surveys. Now, a person could still submit their family members number and then comment more then once but it would create a more reliable data base that would scrub duplicates and only count when it matched up with an existing lifetime number. That way, surveys and comments to the NRC could use the same system and identifier. Could still be manipulated but it would be less costly over the long haul and still reasonably reliable.
