"Fingerprints are usernames, not passwords"

Always thought fingerprints as passwords was pretty dumb.  Fingerprints as usernames though... that's a neat idea.

The keypunch speed should be the password.

My idea for a distributed anonymous authentication system effectively uses public keys as usernames.
Good article though, and it also highlights the need to be able to change a password... Which is something that my system doesn't really handle gracefully (without having a "master key").
