问题     If you have ever been mistaken for somebody else, you can certainly sympathize with two young women from Maryland, both named Wanda Marie Johnson.
    One Wanda was living and working in Washington, D.C., when she became confused with the second Wanda, a former resident of the area, whom she’d never met. Both Wan- das were born on June 15, 1953, and their social security numbers are the same except for the final three digits. Amazingly, they both moved from Washington to St. George’s Grenada.
    Both women drove cars of the same year and model, which really confused the computers at the Department of Motor Vehicles. When one of the Wandas applied for her driver’s license, she was told she already had one and that she was required to wear glasses while driving. She spoke to four supervisors before convincing the authorities that her vision was perfect and that she really did need a license. She then received two licenses instead of one.
    The Wandas also became confused in medical and credit records. One of the women was hounded for not paying a bill for furniture she had never purchased. She couldn’t convince a skeptical debt collector that she’d never been in the store.
    Newspapers finally picked up the story, and the identity confusion was brought to light. The Wandas met to discuss solution to their bizarre predicament. One Wanda was re- ported to be considering using her maiden name.
