 What was Revelation said again? Something about everyone
wearing the mark
 of
 the devil?

Yes, and earthquakes, wars, volcanoes, hurricanes and divers
disasters - all we
need now is a volcano somewhere and I'm going to dig a very
large hole in my
garden and fill it with baked beans (tins that is) and hope
the Almighty doesn't
notice me come judgment day.

Now is it just an urban legend that the number 666 is embedded into the
standard barcode? If not, maybe old John was right with his Revelations

Method for verifying human identity during electronic sale
transactions

Abstract

A method is presented for facilitating sales transactions by
electronic media. A bar code or a design
is tattooed on an individual. Before the sales transaction
can be consummated, the tattoo is scanned
with a scanner. Characteristics about the scanned tattoo are
compared to characteristics about other
tattoos stored on a computer database in order to verify the
identity of the buyer. Once verified, the
seller may be authorized to debit the buyer's electronic
bank account in order to consummate the
transaction. The seller's electronic bank account may be
similarly updated.
