if you were registered in the state of Taxachusetts
and had your card already...as i am
and then went to register in Rhode Island
to be in compliance with the LAW.... there
then you would have to be issued a second registry number
and theoretically become two people at that point.
i also had my number printed on labels so i can have
that "magic number" in more than one place
which can be used similarly as a sort of a bar code
to identify
your fishing gear.
