re: Verimed Health Link System and Microsoft HealthVault
(quoted comments from post): "You'll notice that the chips have what are called ISO numbers. These are the "International Standards Organization" numbers that assure global compatibility. In other words, the system is globalized. Every country in the world is to use the same "standardized system" and is to be linked to a single database. The "Health Link System" they are calling it."

VeriChip and Microsoft? A match made in....?
