Registration is not disabled, it's just controlled due to the thousands of undesirables who try to sneak in. Perhaps everyone who is anyone is already here?
We've had births, deaths, and marriages. As Steve Earle said:
Fall turned to winter, another year gone
Over and over again
Some took their lives from the land and moved on
Some stayed on to plow it back in
The good Lord he giveth, and he taketh away
And the restless shall go, and the faithful shall stay.
