My impression, from reading the various discussions about conservation
licenses, was that they were for individuals, and that one could in
theory be stopped out on foot somewhere and asked for it. However,
when I went to buy a license from Fred Meyer in Lake City, I got into
a dispute with them about it. I tried to buy a "John Doe" second license
in case I went birding with a friend. They said no. So I tried to
buy two in my name. They said they weren't allowed to do that. So
a manager was called over. We went back and forth and she finally said
that the licenses were for *cars*, not individuals. She was quite
adament that it was more akin to a parking permit. Her example was
water skiers using state property to park on without paying. I tried
to explain that my impression was that these were for individuals, to
no avail.

So who's right? You guys, or them?
