Handbag Holders in Cars

Automobile Designers: Please create an interior space in cars where ladies' purses can be stowed.

You've done it for maps, gloves, books, soccer schedules, baby wipes, CDs, money, cell phones, travel cups, water bottles, arm rests, safety seats, spare tires, sunglasses, garage door openers, and more.

Since we're the ones who carry the bags containing any or all of the above for ourselves and all the other travellers once we're out of the car, perhaps you could do us the favor of your consideration and create a stowaway space that will keep our purses off the floor with the pebbles and road dust and spilled coffee, in a spot where everybody's dirty shoes wont be able to smash our handbags over to the side and furthermore cause them to tumble out onto the parking lot when the car door open, spilling all the aforementioned items across the blacktop, where they will inevitably begin to roll downhill, away from said car door, or be crushed under the trampling feet of those exiting the vehicle, or, if made of paper, blow away?

Thank you.

Things That Should Be Easier Due to Technology

1. When you live in the same school district child after child, year after year, you shouldn't have to fill out the same paperwork over and over on your family or your child. You shouldn't have to submit the same information to each school for each child or each grade. Unless your information changes, you should just need to sign off on multiple copies of paperwork that verifies your address and phone and emergency contacts, as well as your child's physician and dentist and immunization records. People aren't suddenly cured of milk allergies and if you need access to an inhaler the nurse should know that for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade. The athletic department should be able to accept a copy of the emergency contact information you turned in to the student services offices--if they need to shrink it down to another size or format, it should be a school administrative thing, not a me filling out the same information on the same forms 6 times for three children thing. I know, I know. It's rare that my husband and I are still married and living in the same house with our children for so long. But get over it and give me our info. from last year to review and initial and return to you for your files.

2. I should be able to have a universal passcode for my computer, my websites, my cell phone, my banking, my gated community gate, my frequent buyer cards, etc. Okay, let me guess: does that sound dangerous to you? Like, if someone gets your passcode then all is lost; they have your complete identity and access to all the places you go and things you buy? Well, it seems they can have that pretty easily now, anyway, right? I mean, identity theft happens all the time. They try to put in security measures now, so can't someone do something more sophisticated along those lines? I think I should be able to have one passcode that is universally encrypted for everything. The encryption should keep changing--but I shouldn't have to do anything different. There could be any number of encrypting programs out there for commercial use by all these places wishing to protect me. All codes are at risk of being cracked, so why can't I memorize one Matrix thread and be done with it? Instead, I need four self-selected numbers for my voicemail, four randomly assigned numbers for the credit card PIN, at least five characters plus one number for a password, the right cases and no more than 8 characters for another password, and blah blah number number Blah. Someone could fix that.

3. Digital photo storage/albums. After so many cameras and software programs, with so many people here using the photos files, it occurs to me there should be one easy way to make all those albums on our computer user-friendly. Like my real photo albums are. Look what they've done in the area of income tax filing. That's how uploading, viewing and organizing new photos should go, right? TurboPhoto. Someone get on that.
