Hold on to your privates... <br /> perhaps, the last chance you may have, <br /> to keep the baby and the water, <br /> - - - somewhere near the bath. <br /> <br /> George Orwell was not right, <br /> he was thirty years, or so, too early, <br /> but, that does not make him wrong. <br /> <br /> In 1949, he published '1984', <br /> in Twenty-Fourteen, it may not seem, <br /> as though he was a visionary, <br /> you may be happy in complacency, <br /> before you know what that will mean. <br /> <br /> Big Brother won't be watching you, <br /> ... in your bathroom yet, <br /> he will only know that you are there, <br /> because the clothes you wear will tell him. <br /> <br /> He has to know where those clothes go, <br /> ... you know, to track his inventory, <br /> to stop the theft, for lower prices, <br /> ... and you will buy the story. <br /> <br /> Without any luck at all, <br /> the issue will get boring, <br /> and you will never realize, <br /> ... that you ARE the inventory! <br /> <br /> They will know everything about you, <br /> what food you eat, what time you sleep, <br /> what books you read, <br /> and even where you keep your car keys. <br /> <br /> Is it so much to comprehend, <br /> that your T.V. may look back at you? <br /> Who is on the other end? <br /> although ' WHY? ', should be the question. <br /> <br /> <br /> NOTE: Type ' R.F.I.D.' into your favorite <br /> search engine, if you need to stay <br /> awake some night.<br /><br />Barry Van Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/about-radio-frequency-identification-r-f-i-d/
