   "How many people recognize the day isn't at all clear."   
   Not me, anyway.   
      
   Crystal briefly discusses prohibitions on words not permitted on   
   personalized ("vanity") plates. There have been a couple of cases here   
   recently -- one involving "NUTSAX" and one, amazingly, "KAREN". The   
   latter was actually the car owner's name, but since the name "Karen" has   
   been weaponized to denote a particular type of annoying person, someone   
   felt obliged to complain that it was offensive -- actually a   
   stereotypically "Karen"ish thing to do. The NZ Transport Agency, who   
   deal with these matters, apparently have no linguistic clues at all,   
   judging by the fact that they took this seriously even for a minute.
