from the International Herald Tribune (10/24/03):

"Americans hate to wait. But will they pay - and submit to security
screenings and high-tech fingerprinting - to avoid the long lines
snaking behind checkpoints in airports, office buildings and sports
arenas?

"Steven Brill is betting that the answer is yes. He planned to
announce on Thursday a new company, Verified Identity Card, to
offer customers an electronic card containing data showing that
they are not on antiterrorism "watch lists" and do not have certain
felony convictions on their records."
