My British passport will only include chips if, as and when the issuing
authority provides the fish to go with them. Until then, I shall remain in
my tree-house.

Its a US requirement and the deadline set by the Bush administration was
years ago but many (most?) countries cannot afford to do it. I never figured

things you would have a "real" chip in your passport. This stuff is like
squeezing a balloon as when you press in one area it pops out in a different
one. Unfortunately though the world runs on money and all the money goes
thru SWIFT.
