Story: IBM calls for global identity management solution

There are millions of guys that have good ideas, thousands that have brilliant ideas, and hundreds that have world-changing ideas.

But due to the fact that company association is the only form of reputation system we currently have, guys like Cal Slemp have their opinions plasted all over the news, regardless of the true value of their current opinion, while people like me who think we have something that can change the world, never get a hearing. I personally have contacted over one hundred and fifty multinationals, government departments, Attorney Generals, banks, research organisations - you name it. And over ninety percent don't even bother replying.

It is certainly true that most supposedly brilliant ideas are either already thought of, or unworkable. I am yet to hear this of mine, and I've sure as hell tried. All those that have managed to fully understand my Identity Management solution suggest go for it - but refrain from having their name or company associated.

Those in a position of power and/or influence- both in government and in large corporations - need to consider that while they sit on their fat arse behind their secretaries, security guards and private telephone listings, that if they are not prepared to listen to the customers and tax payers, then they should shut the hell up and stop pretending that they know best.

The ultimate insult, comes from those that suggest that we need more co-operation to tackle this massive problem - yet they are not personally interested in listening, except when it means a quick buck for them.

If you think your company has what it takes to bring an Identity Theft solution to the world but you can't imagine what a real solution would look like, then try me:
