Gene, I don't know.  Most people aren't even aware  that these losses of 
freedoms are occurring.  Maybe people like you, who have credibility, could 
spread the word.  If you read that Scientific American article, and other 
articles, I think you will feel; uneasy.  Even people in small rural towns 
will be tracked in everything they do.  The few people I've talked to think 
that I'm getting this information from end-of-time , protocols of zion type 
nuts; this is Scientific American

I've never seen a story about any of this on television or read about it in 
the NYT, Wash. Post, etc.  .  Why are people not even aware? Why is this 
stuff so hidden.  The state in the article is Washington State.  People there 
have expressed no reluctance.  They are about to be in Arizona and other 
border state Drivers License.  As of Oct 1st, they will be in every U.S. 
passport.  

If I were a bit healthier, I might make a scene.  I don't know what to do.  
I've been around long enough to remember when you could live your life in 
privacy --even secrecy -- if that was your choice.  As long you didn't commit 
a big crime & paid your own way, your life was your own.  Today, you can 
almost commit a big crime, just by trying to live privately.  

gene, right now, with someones name and address, you can pay a search firm 
300 dollars and find out almost everything recorded about a person.  With 
this new generation RFID technology, you'll know every movement.  And those 
records, like email, are forever.  Even if you are not worried about a person 
or business or business partner snooping on you without your knowledge, can 
you think of a better expression of absolute tyranny than the government 
knwoing your every move.

A cop in your hometown can put a GPS locater under the bumper of your car, 
without a warrant, just to see where you go and what you do.  With the next 
generation RFID, trhat will seem almost primitive.  The RFID scanners will be 
so ubiquitous that people will no longer even notice them.  They are already 
in new cars , with the message distributing your vin number.  They will soon 
be in everything.

I don't mind being called paranoid when I see that "they really are out to 
'watch' me"...........bobford
