I was just @ the DMV, and I lost an original copy of my birth certificate somewhere between the counter and my friend's car in the parking lot. I called a generic state DMV hotline, and the rep said my local office would mail it to me if they found it. Exactly how precious is an original copy of my birth certificate? Should I go back and look for it (would require taking the bus or a 8 mi. round trip walk)?
