Take a look: http://www.ssa.gov/foia/stateweb.html I'd love to have that in map form. Kudos to anyone who either makes it or can find it on the internet. Sure enough, if you'd know my SSN, you could verify that I was born in Texas. The few other people whose SSN I know (both ex-gfs, some members of family, and some very few others) can also be verified this way. At some point if/when I move to Europe, I anticipate renouncing my U.S. Citizenship. I wonder if my SSN will be detached from me at that point, and if so, whether it will be reused. Hmm.
