I don't understand the typo theory even more. HI’s # that were issued 575-576 040-049 were CT.Would it not involve *mistakenly* typing more then just the zero?

It's the zip code that was mistyped, not the SSN. Take a Honolulu zip code, change the leading nine to a zero, and you will get a CT zip code. SSN's were assigned based on zip code, so if the zip code were mistyped, the computer would generate a SSN that starts with 042.

WRONG~!

Back in those days SSN’s were issued mostly on paper- you went to an office and they gave you one off the stack.

The ‘typo’ error is complete nonsense

Why do you keep posting this nonsense? If there was a typo such as that, then the computer would have kicked it back.
