A Matter of License (Plates)

krpalmerLicense plates in my province have used an extravagant four letters (with three numbers) for over twenty years. We’ve worked through the A-prefixed codes, worked through the B-prefixed codes, and when I saw plates starting with CZ I did get the feeling it wouldn’t be long until this unusual odometer turned over. Today, I saw a plate with a DAA-prefix, and then before I’d got back from work I saw a second one.
So far as that goes, though, I am remembering that just a few days ago I saw a license plate with a “73” stamp in the corner, a relic of when they were supposed to be changed every year, and the old ecologically-minded logo “Keep It Beautiful.” Its prefix was some letters before the plate that had stayed in my family for a number of years, which also got my attention; this plate wasn’t on a fifty-year-old car, anyway.
