[Reader-list] What after MNIC? The MIND, the final frontier.

[Vivek Narayanan]

Dear Taha,

I'm surprised that you would question the obvious usefulness of the MNIC 
in weeding out terrorists.

It's very simple-- the card, in addition to the photograph, would have a 
column entitled "OCCUPATION", correct? 

So under "OCCUPATION", all terrorists could be required to kindly enter 
their profession as, "TERRORIST"-- and then we would know exactly who 
they were, when they presented their card!  We would not even need to 
read their mind first :)
