OT: IHOP Changes Policy of Asking for IDs!
« on: November 30, 2006, 08:27:07 AM »
I just read an Associated Press article about an IHOP in Quincy, Massachusetts that was asking dinners to hand over their photo ID before they could order:

QUOTE
QUINCY, Mass. - John Russo has been a victim of identity theft. So when he was asked to fork over a photo ID just to be seated at an IHOP pancake restaurant, he flipped. "'You want my license? I'm going for pancakes, I'm not buying the Hope diamond,' and they refused to seat us," Russo said, recounting his experience this week at the Quincy IHOP.
