So what is wrong with GPG Sig or.... A biometric eyescan or a DNA
Barcode ?
At least, technology would be saying - This is really your offspring -
or at least we are 99.97% sure that this is your offspring.
Please answer the following questionaire for offspring ratification:

A. Have you or any of your immediate family ever been cloned ?
B. Have you ever used less than 1024 bit encryption for any form of
passphrase encryption ?
C. When undergoing your last shell changeover, did you ensure that all
the DNA from your last host body was cremated ?

OK, failing technology, (in the event of a Level 1 EMP incident) a
personal unique mark could be used, like they used to do before people
could do cursive writing....

Dear Mum, Happy egg donor day,
