Some took the plunge back at the height of the rush to buy an overappraised home in anywhere USA and back then the NNA rolled out ELECTREONIC NOTARIZATIONS. Just your laptop, a signature pad and $600 in software was all it took to join the 21st century. Old school and skeptical as I am this was not for me.

Fast forward to yesterday (8-7-2012) and ahead of me in line at the county clerk's office was a notary resigning her commission with 4 letter sized storage boxes in tow. Wow! I exclaimed pretty busy, how many journals? Only one she said. The clerk walked up and proceeded to open each box and grumble at the contence. Thousands of pages of loose paper with 20 line item notarizations per page. That's less than 1/2 inch per line. The boxes were dated 2006 to 2012 but good luck finding a particular date, type and name.

I questioned the Clerk (a friend for over a decade) and she explained that the records were pretty much worthless due to the fact that there was no way to do a forensic analysis on the signatures or the age of the ink, just to name a few of the problems. She had only one journal (NNA with pretty flowers on the cover) and the clerk just walked off with that in her hand and left the file boxes on the counter.
