JS...I say try any experiment you can. I have a feeling with what has happened recentlythey have clamped down, but I don't know. It would be interesting to see what they will or won't do for you.
Are you going to ask information about our wife or see if they will swipe her card?
The only thing is he didn't go for info, but an alibi. This is the difference.
I can try whatever would be of value. Earlier, there was a premise (I think from FlowerChild), that LTF wouldn't provide information related to whether a spouse was in the club, or had been to the club. My thought was I would go and "test that theory", by inquiring with them whether my spouse was inside, or had been inside today. If they gladly answer my question, then it's inconsistent with FC's theory. If they politely decline, then it may or may not support FC's theory as to what went down when BC went there.
With that said, your later post (based on your source) indicated that this wasn't the dialog that BC had at the front-counter anyway. [ So seems like I'd be wasting my time trying to gather evidence for FC's theory, if we already know (or take it) to be false ]
As for trying to "test" your theory (ie, doing exactly what BC was doing on that morning to get my spouse's card swiped). I guess I'd need more information to precisely test it exactly. [ not asking you to provide more info ]
I will say this, if it were me, and I WANTED to get my spouse's card swiped... under normal circumstances, I bet I could do it with ease: (Yes, ease) I hand the receptionist the card (never hand them mine), and they swipe it. They never actually look at the photo on there, in fact, the newer membership cards (issued earlier this summer) don't have photos anyway.
If I'm BC, and I want to have NC's card swiped... just walk to the counter, and hand them that card. [ Sure if the photo comes up on their screen, and it's the wife, they may tell him "looks like your wifes card", but at that point, he can just say "oh, sorry, I must have grabbed it by mistake", and then leave. Mission (get her card swiped) accomplished. If my goal is to get my spouse's card swiped, the last thing I would do is give them my card, and then later try to convince them to swipe my spouse's card. That would just be weird, look weird, be easily remembered (as odd) by the receptionist, and have little chance of success (not saying that's what he did, since I don't know).
Will be happy to run this experiment (get front-desk person to swipe spouses card) if that's of value. [ But again, I predict it will be trivial (unless of course someone on this board rats me out prior.
)]
