Randy Karasek made a terrific page full of information on this topic. It is still live here:

http://www.mbcinfo.com/Post/CanCodes/

I have a request in to him to replicate that information and mirror it on this forum.

Thanks for the bump Ed. Yes, I took my site offline for sometime in 2007-2008 due to a few morons who insisted anything on the Internet public domain and they were free to steal any content and do anything they want with the owners information. I have since re hosted all information.

I only request simple request and reference to use any information. All my Michigan, California and all BMV and CanDB freely web hosted, my cost, free to download for personal use. If you reuse for publication or your repost, simply ask first.

The internet is NOT public domain, there are IP rights. If you want to argue otherwise, next beer can show I will help myself to your free beer cans since just an empty piece of metal garbage, contents consumed and container just preserved garbage.
