Celebrity Chipsters
Apparently a former government official who joined the board of a company that makes implanted chips vowed to get a chipped, and he never did. This World Net Daily report (Life With Big Brother) has the details. The company is eager to get him to keep his word, they seem to think having a big name government official get chipped will help acclimate the rest of us into the brave new world of implanted radio ID tags. I'm just surprised that their PR department thinks that this former government official has the kind of name recognition that would do that. Do you imagine that people will say: If it's good enough for Tommy Thompson, it's good enough for me.

Update: Tommy says he may yet get chipped (Yahoo! News - Thompson Still Open to Having Chip Implant).
