Re: RFID

I have never felt a desire to microwave my credit cards. They now sell little jackets that block the RFID signal of your credit cards when you slide them into it.

My new passport I got last year also as an RFID chip and they make passport cases that block it. In the case of passports there is a fear that terrorists in a foreign country could have a reader out on the street that could read you passport RFID and know which people are Americans to kill or kidnap them.

Yes, they had some RFID cases in the airport my husband and I were in a couple of weeks ago. A person could use one of those, but personally, it's not thieves I am concerned with. It's the big people.

I have a passport but I will not be microwaving it.

I resent this insinuation about us fat people! I promise I am not going to steal your identity or financial information.

Okay, okay. Go ahead and enjoy your ice cream. I really didn't mean anything by it. You do know that your bones are supposed to be made fat, according to the bible. At least that's what someone else here told me this week.

Yep, fat bones make us happy or something like that.

Re: RFID

These are a couple of relatively short videos. It's a mini-movie called SmartCard. Warning.....there are a few swear words in it but it is worth watching and provokes thought. We are so close to this it isn't even funny.
