So what we doing for real? So that's your case number. Where's the other guy? He old. Okay, can you give him that card? Okay. So um when the eTrace is done and they are ready to release it to you, they will call you. Did you give us a phone number for you? All right. Do you mind if I get it from you? Okay. So they'll call you and you just come pick it up. That's basically all it is. It's just to verify that it's yours. I'm not trying to call you a liar, but you know, anyone could say, "Yep, that's mine." because we don't have a database to be able to look at it like [music] we do like driver's license and tags.
