There is no way you could have read and comprehended a Mosher post in 4 minutes

Your mistake is to assume that I comprehended Don's post. I suggest you should never assume that about me again.

<<The old slogan to demonstrate our society's progress was "a chicken in every pot." Now it's a national ID card for every citizen. Billionaire technology mogul Larry Ellison 's proposal for the government to create an identification card that would contain the holder's basic information is taking wind, according to The Mercury News. The paper reported that the chief executive of Oracle has met with U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft and CIA and FBI authorities to discuss the issue. "We are in the process of putting a proposal together and analyzing what it would take to get something running in a matter of a small number of months, like three months, 90 days," Ellison said. "We think we could put up this technology very, very quickly." The card would hold a person's Social Security number and would be linked to a federal database containing detailed personal data, including digital records of the person's thumbprint, palm print, face or eyes.>>
