RE: I'm not important.

That makes more sense now, thanks for taking the time to explain! I honestly don't think that it's any different now than then, at least in the result. The process, yes. It's a lot easier to track somebody down these days, though. And police are a lot better connected. It's just the will that is missing. If bureaucrats know that it's a lot of work, it falls of the desk. I wouldn't blame computerization for that, just common human laziness.
