I am convinced that tagging is the way to go, but it needs to be
invasive, which is where it gets icky, and "biological"

what I have considered (but haven't found someone to answer the long
temr safety concerns) is using the same tagging technology used on lab
rabbits, or indeed expensive pets, of placing a small glass bead with a
transponder in it under the skin, just as Kevin "Captain Cyborg"
Warwick has done (except without the apocalyptic streak)

It would be really handy, like taking an ibutton to the next level:
keys you simplay cannot ever forget to take with you.....

Does this spook people, or do you see it as a possibility (I am
interested in people's response)

Ian.
