What about microfilms of the original long form BC? That's how mine was stored when I had to get a new registered copy, and they are relatively easy to make a film copy so you can store an archival one.

Also, what about other people born in Hawaii about the same age as Obama? Were their birth certificates destroyed too, or was it a very, very focused fire?

Were their birth certificates destroyed too, or was it a very, very focused fire?

Self-destructing, like the tapes at the beginning of "Mission Impossible."
