*   panacea could someday be the implantable microchip.
*   
*   Incredibly, someone was working on just such a system back in 1989.
*   According to the Arizona Republic of July 20th, 1989, inventor Jack
*   Dunlap was working on a product known as KIDSCAN, designed to help
*   locate children who have been kidnapped or murdered.
*   
*   The article states: "Each child whose parents signed up for
*   KIDSCAN would get a computer chip planted under the skin and an
*   identification number. The chip would transmit a signal that would bounce
*   off a satellite and be picked up by police on a computer-screen map."

*   When implanted under the skin of the subject, the biochip will emit low

*   up into space to an orbiting satellite. The transmission wo
