Code, nerd culture and humor from Greg Knauss.

The California DMV has rules for custom license plates — specifically that they cannot “carry connotations offensive to good taste and decency.”

It occurred to me to check on this, because I recently ran across a photo I took fifteen years ago:

A close-up photo of a California license plate that says "VAN4A✋J".

How this license plate got approved is raising questions already answered by this license plate.

Hi there! My name's GREG KNAUSS and I like to make things.

Some of those things are software (like Romantimatic), Web sites (like the Webby-nominated Metababy and The American People) and stories (for Web sites like Suck and Fray, print magazines like Worth and Macworld, and books like "Things I Learned About My Dad" and "Rainy Day Fun and Games for Toddler and Total Bastard").

My e-mail address is greg@eod.com. I'd love to hear from you!
