Is it true? Smiling is banned in the non-wing capital of the world? Say it isn't so.

This is bad. My son is never without a smile, and was planning on attending college there!

Dang! They ran this story in Seattle - right before the story on the Governor of Illinois!

Yep, my license photo is non smiling. Also, your head must be straight up, no excessive hair on your forehead, and a few other things.

Facial recognition software? Sounds awfully "Big Brother" to me.

How about facial recognition on your computer instead of a password. While we were in Phoenix for the Western World we were looking at new lap tops at Fry's and one of them had facial recognition software. I think it worked on the iris of your eye since they all are different like your dna.
I think there might be more of this going on than we now about. Pretty easy to use this system in the airport for instance were you have to pass through the metal detector one at a time.
No, I don't think black helicopters are flying over my house looking through the walls. :kookoo

Your gonna lose that fake Id that says your 21, who ya gonna get to buy them silver bullets now.:eek: Is this to prevent identity theft, that would mean the facial recognition software would be available any where you can make a big purchase? Or just at the BMV so you can't get a genuine fake ID.
