So you're telling me that as long as some content producer/provider issued me a license with a keeper of records on it that regardless of whether the girl is actually 13 I as a webmaster or just a plain citizen who is now in possession of 100 photos of a 13 year old sucking cock I am in the clear legally? Even if the police can't turn up the person listed as the keeper of records?

maybe you're right.
I know I am right. Let's say that every content provider out there starts to include ID's. This is not a bad idea if the webmasters can be trusted with the info....Anyway...The webmaster can not positively state that the id is valid since they never saw it in the first place. He is not responsible for checking the ORIGINAL documents as a producer is. Since the producer saw the originals and then he made the copies/scans of them, the producer is the only responsible party.
