Mr. David:
Thanks for your reposte: I do not entirely agree, but thanks.

I doubt that fac/rec systems would be good for cop surveillance
as survie-ops are generally done from a long distance, taking
in a whole street corner, not just one doorway. It seems that
for court acceptable evidence purposes the fac/rec
camera must be very close to the subject, as through the
peephole in a speakeasy as it were, if that word is familiar.

It seems also that a retail credit-card verify-situation is not
a "one-to-many" search issue. All the merchant needs to know
is whether the card-presenter has the same physical bio-algo as
the one already imbedded in the card. It is a one-to-one
question, not a one-to-many. For example,if my card says I
am "23XD6" and my live fingerprint says I am not "23XD6"
then my transaction might be voided.

I am long IDX and have been for over 2 1/2 years. I am still
profitable even after these last long months. I "ain't" in love
with it and have severe criticisms of our management, but I
remain long, cautiosly.
Regards
