I say this assuming you'll renew your insurance, of course. And I've mentioned that I boggle at the Pa DMV? Because I totally do.

Hil, are you doing Pa registration? If so, And you're doing it online, just put in next year.
But is it the same policy number?

It is with ours. If your insurance policy number might change from year to year, probably best to call.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Your insurance policy number should be the same year to year as long as you're with the same company. Even if you let it expire, when they reinstate it, the policy number should be the same.

Hil,
I have auto-renew with my insurance company and they take it out of the checking account. They only thing they do is send me registration id cards every year or 1/2 a year. I have paid monthly on my policy ever since I had a car even though the premium is reported as 6 month.

I'm all about setting up access to accounts online even if I don't pay through the web (though I mostly do now, but still get paper bills.)
I'm addicted to public radio long-format/thematic storytelling programs. Snap Judgement, The Story, TAL, Moth, Stoop, The Signal. It's something PR does damned well.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Our insurance does *not* automatically renew. I know this very very vividly because in our big car accident in Sedona six years ago, (which we are still paying for, mind you) we had lapsed by one day being on the road and getting our mail forwarded, and they declined to cover. Within their rights, but sucked. And then we had to find a new insurance company because theirs would not pick us back up. So, call. Renew. You might not even have to talk to a human. But it`s way worth the hassle, and it`s our responsibility to stay insured.

Cool, I have inherited myself a Kindle. My dad bought my mother a Kindle, and she didn't really use it (she's uncomfortable with all machines anyway, and the dementia makes it hard for her to learn anything), and a few months ago it stopped working. Couldn't figure out what was wrong.
So instead of trying to fix it, he bought her a new Kindle. Even though she didn't use the one she already had. And I took the old one away, I was going to recycle it, but I saw that you could replace the battery on a 1st-generation Kindle for $20.
So I did, and it's working! I have re-registered it to my Amazone account, booyah. Now I have to figure out how to download fic onto it...

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

AO3 automatically formats stuff as ebooks. There's a download link on each story.
For stuff that's not, you're gonna want Calibre.
