I have to say, I'm seeing a lot that I hadn't thought of; GOOD ONES!!

This is gonna be great!
Now, rather than having to choose the "least bad" from among my mildewed woodpile of lame ideas, I'll have a real CHOICE!

Keep 'em coming; you folks are great!

Just one little reminder. I can't have a number surrounded by letters; numbers have to be on the ends.

No idea why Illinois has such a goofy rule, but that's how it is.

To save Doug some time you might want to check if it's available first
https://www.ilsos.gov/PickAPlateWeb/index1.html

You will find that Numbers must have a space around it, so

1STNKNOB must be 1 STNKNOB and doesn't quite read the same for example.
