IDX is a lame idea. If it comes down to utilizing their products, we might as well give up our constitution. I got into it about a yer or so ago with those guys on that thread, and I think while the technology might be fcinating, USA would be aa police state if it cme down to using their product. *One thing I do like of theirs(though I admit I haven't looked into it too much) is the print ID for fire arms. I own a number of weapons(though I'm truely a passifist), I think it is a good idea to have something to identify the owner of a gun and make it inoperable if the prints didn't line up. But the rest of their tech, freaking scry. I wouldn't be comfortable living in a world that relied on this stuff. <end of rant>
