C'mon Gary, why would anyone want to bother with all of this crap? Chip implants are already in millions of pets. It's simple, cheap, and there's no work for the owner.
And there are several standards which are NOT compatible. Simply putting a chip in your pet (or child) is not sufficient to guarantee their return. If the system at use at the pound is not compatible the chip in the pet won't even respond and the operator has no idea of the actual situation. This is one of the reasons many states are enacting laws regarding the sale and transfer of pets. There was a piece on CNN just a couple of weeks ago about this problem, one state in the central US is in the process of passing various laws about animal trading. Seems they have a problem with people stealing pets from peoples homes and collecting 'for free' pets and then selling them to the medical labs at a hefty profit. Their advise was to never give pets away, but to always charge at least $10 ea. and if leaving pets unattended either put them inside a locked bldg. or else have your neighbors watch them in a fenced yard.
Thousands of humans are also implanted, i.e., Green Berets, Seals, and similar types, women with breast implants, and so on. There's a move- ment on to implant most children, so they're not as vulnerable to kid- napping, etc.
Baloney. I know two SEAL's (I share an office at work with one) and I can verify they are NOT chiped. I also have several female friends who have had various breast surgeries and they also are not chipped. Jim Choate CyberTects ravage@ssz.com

Well, I guess the baloney clause wins, 'cause I certainly can't verify it. OTOH, if an intelligence officer (i.e., Navy Seal) tells me the sky is green and the grass is blue, I'll understand completely (wink). The breast implant thing is supposed to be law, although again, I don't have my hand in anyone's bra to check them out....

I would really like to see some statistics on the number of "lost children" who have suffered (any given incommodation) exclusively due to their inability to be positively linked with some True Idendity. Most of the English-speaking children with which I'm aquainted can answer the question "What's your name?". - -- Roy M.

Not my point. My point is, you make sure the chips are deep enough that they can't be removed without removing a great deal of body mass (and probably killing the subject). The chip also has to be monitorable externally, so that a number of transponders or whatever positioned in many different places can isolate each chip and ID it, much like police do with auto licence plates. This way, it's vastly more difficult (or impossible) to operate the so-called white-slave rings now sponsored by various elitist groups and protected by corrupt police authorities.
