David:
I use a state issued picture driver license, a birth certificate,
and
a US Passport.
Do you mean to identify yourself, and/or you insist on that before
you'll sign someone else's key?
But to be brutal, a birth certificate proves nothing, any thief could
have stolen one. And which of us could pick a good faked driver's
license or passport from a real one? Or would know whether someone's
fraudulently obtained real ones?
