Thief's Den

"It's alright, we know where you've been..."

So I'm listening to Pink Floyd's "Welcome to the Machine," and I see this...

Being a parent will be a little easier in LEGOLAND during this season, as the park is launching an electronic Kidspotter service in cooperation with the Tryg insurance company. Available for rent in the Information Office, a Kidspotter ensures that parents can always find their children whenever necessary. On entering the park, the wristband is placed on the child's arm. If parents lose sight of their child, they can send an SMS message to the Kidspotter system during their entire visit. They will then automatically receive a return message stating the name of the park area and the map coordinate of their child's position in the park. On their special Kidspotter map of the park, parents can easily see where to find their child. The Kidspotter kit consists of a small wristband with a tiny sender, plus a special Kidspotter map of the park.

Sheesh. The way parents are nowadays, they'll probably start getting these chips permanently implanted in their young'uns in a few years. And more than likely will leave them in there permanently.

Resistance is futile, kiddies.

Welcome my son
Welcome...to the Machine
Where have you been?
It's alright, we know where you've been...
