Notarization
If you want to get your Thawte Web of Trust digital certificate bumped up to a full certificate or you want to become a notary, I can issue 35 points of goodness as long as you adhere to the notarization identification requirements and bring along photocopies of your national ID you used for me to keep for 7 years.

Please find me in the WoT directory and make a time today! I'll happily do this at conferences as well.
