>And RFID does not address the information quality problem.

I work with RFID in a totally different field (race timing) really sympathize with you here. We give racers tags to wrap around their ankles, and our systems will all work perfectly, and then we get people complaining because the race results have them coming across the finish line in the wrong order. 9 times out of 10, it's because they wore somebody else's tag.

I suppose if somebody slaps a sticker on a bag saying "send this to Sydney" when it's supposed to go to Calgary, it really doesn't matter how high tech that sticker is.
