WARNING: This Product Warps Space and Time in Its Vicinity.
WARNING: This Product Attracts Every Other Piece of Matter in the Universe, Including the Products of Other Manufacturers, with a Force Proportional to the Product of the Masses and Inversely Proportional to the Distance Between Them.
CAUTION: The Mass of This Product Contains the Energy Equivalent of 85 Million Tons of TNT per Net Ounce of Weight.
HANDLE WITH EXTREME CARE: This Product Contains Minute Electrically Charged Particles Moving at Velocities in Excess of Five Hundred Million Miles Per Hour.
CONSUMER NOTICE: Because of the "Uncertainty Principle," It Is Impossible for the Consumer to Find Out at the Same Time Both Precisely Where This Product Is and How Fast It Is Moving.
ADVISORY: There is an Extremely Small but Nonzero Chance That, Through a Process Know as "Tunneling," This Product May Spontaneously Disappear from Its Present Location and Reappear at Any Random Place in the Universe, Including Your Neighbor's Domicile. The Manufacturer Will Not Be Responsible for Any Damages or Inconvenience That May Result.
READ THIS BEFORE OPENING PACKAGE: According to Certain Suggested Versions of the Grand Unified Theory, the Primary Particles Constituting this Product May Decay to Nothingness Within the Next Four Hundred Million Years.
THIS IS A 100% MATTER PRODUCT: In the Unlikely Event That This Merchandise Should Contact Antimatter in Any Form, a Catastrophic Explosion Will Result.
PUBLIC NOTICE AS REQUIRED BY LAW: Any Use of This Product, in Any Manner Whatsoever, Will Increase the Amount of Disorder in the Universe. Although No Liability Is Implied Herein, the Consumer Is Warned That This Process Will Ultimately Lead to the Heat Death of the Universe.
NOTE: The Most Fundamental Particles in This Product Are Held Together by a "Gluing" Force About Which Little is Currently Known and Whose Adhesive Power Can Therefore Not Be Permanently Guaranteed.
ATTENTION: Despite Any Other Listing of Product Contents Found Hereon, the Consumer is Advised That, in Actuality, This Product Consists Of 99.9999999999% Empty Space.
NEW GRAND UNIFIED THEORY DISCLAIMER: The Manufacturer May Technically Be Entitled to Claim That This Product Is Ten-Dimensional. However, the Consumer Is Reminded That This Confers No Legal Rights Above and Beyond Those Applicable to Three-Dimensional Objects, Since the Seven New Dimensions Are "Rolled Up" into Such a Small "Area" That They Cannot Be Detected.
PLEASE NOTE: Some Quantum Physics Theories Suggest That When the Consumer Is Not Directly Observing This Product, It May Cease to Exist or Will Exist Only in a Vague and Undetermined State.
COMPONENT EQUIVALENCY NOTICE: The Subatomic Particles (Electrons, Protons, etc.) Comprising This Product Are Exactly the Same in Every Measurable Respect as Those Used in the Products of Other Manufacturers, and No Claim to the Contrary May Legitimately Be Expressed or Implied.
HEALTH WARNING: Care Should Be Taken When Lifting This Product, Since Its Mass, and Thus Its Weight, Is Dependent on Its Velocity Relative to the User.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PURCHASERS: The Entire Physical Universe, Including This Product, May One Day Collapse Back into an Infinitesimally Small Space. Should Another Universe Subsequently Re-emerge, the Existence of This Product in That Universe Cannot Be Guaranteed.

I'd go for 3D skeleton recognition, if there's a way to scan them without large doses of x-rays.
It would be hard to fool a system like that. Skeletons usualy don't change a lot over time, and the database can determine how much change is acceptable, based on the time difference between old and current scans. As far as I know skeletons may be just as unique as DNA or fingerprints.

Plus it doesn't know where it is. That's why it's moving around all the time.

Just a t-shirt?
Make sure it's a very long one, or you won't be able to hide your only weapon.
People will be pointing at you.

...when he made a computer selfdestruct by asking it a question that's impossible to answer.
Someone must have told this guy: "imagine a perfectly spherical cow..."
No, it just sounds the same but the word doesn't get filtered. As in:
"The business fox the customer".
Have a pretty girl do a striptease right in front of the camera, so you and your friends can sneak across the border behind her back.
Why did you come here for free advice?
Can't you see we're busy?
The battery in me cell phone lasts quite a long time...
Yes, it's lonely having the latest phone when nobody ever calls you.
NovoClub: Only one swing and the pain goes away!
No, the pain just moves to another spot.
You don't want to keep it moving though...
I dated a fossil once. We split up long ago. She didn't like carbonated.
No, it can't be bullshit because I've got loads of that already and it's dark brown.
Mine can spend money before I even earned it.
Which proves that money can exceed the speed of light, once you're married.
They've discovered my illegal garbage dump.
You blew his cover!
It's "Allen Telescope Array" and his name is not Alien.
All rumours about aliens running Microsoft are untrue!
