And lo, the primary key of the beast was 666.
"Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is six hundred and sixty-six." (Revelation 13:16-18 RSV)
Sarah Vowel has a great story about how, when growing up in Eastern Oklahoma, her family thought that bar codes were a sign of the Second Coming - a way of numbering all things. What would ma and pa say about this?
Sometimes Luddites are right.

This is good news! Remember that email you accidentally deleted last week? You can call the Pentagon and they can send it to you! The Gubment is so thoughtful.

That would come in handy in one of those situations when you're arguing with the significant other about something he/she said, and they're denying...you can just go to the database and say "Oh yeah?!? Watch this Jimmy-boy!" and BAM!.... there ya have it....
It would also help me remember what I had for breakfast the day before, cause I'm bad at that...:D

You guys are a mockery of the original settlers of this nation, comically thumbing your nose at an oppressive government and efforts to invade your inalienable rights.
You disgust me, and I find anyone who is willing to tolerate this encroachment to be unamerican!
So, if you are against this, please send an email to: counterTIAdatabase@auto-db.tiatarget.tia.gov
If you find yourself agreeing with these principles or you don't care send to:
TIAfutureInformants@auto-db.tiatool.tia.gov
Show your TRUE colors, you pathetic shiftless unamerican freedom-haters.
