Ney York State allows an obscenely large number of characters on a
license plate. Once upon a time on the LIE, I was stuck behind a car
with the plate "MNEMENTH".

I did see one that might have been a Pern license plate in the DC
area, but didn't recognize the dragon's name. (Nor can I currently
remember what it was.)

On a similar theme, I have a license plate surround that says "My
other car is a dragon." I like it. Even if mom did ask, "Is a Dragon
some fancy kind of car?" Doh!

I think that's great. Gave me a laugh!

No fair! In Britain your letters/numbers are -really- prescribed. You can't get anything ending in 'th'

In california, we are VERY lucky!! I believe we are the first to allow
symbols (heart, star, plus signs) on our license plates. I have
DRAGN(heart)R. There is a picture of it on my web site, in the author
section... had to put that up.

Sorry to hear you guys in Britain can't have personalized plates... California
has more than anyone!

No, but the way the plates are laid out (a letter, followed by 1-3
numbers, followed by 3 letters) does mean that you sometimes get rider
names -- there are a lot of F*LARs around in southeast England! It's
actually an occasionally useful way of getting misc rider names for
fanfiction.... <g>
