[AT] Security credentials

[Dean Vinson]

I work on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, and each time I drive through one
of the gates the security guards check my vehicle decals and my ID card.
Once in a while they ask me what my license plate means, since I have a
vanity plate that reads "M FARML."  When I explain, they usually look sort
of blankly at me and say, "Oh, okay, well, you have a nice day, sir" or
something like that.

So today there was a guard I hadn't seen before, and he took a moment to
look at my license plate, then he studied my ID card, and then said "Sorry,
sir, I can't let you through.  I'm a John Deere man."
