Instead of having something like "insert drivers license" or something they use this?

I always wanted to see a beer vending machine with a "swipe your ID here" on it. :D

I once saw a Sony vending machine. It had PSPs, MP3 players, and DVD players.

A wrinkle scanner? Sounds like a colossal failure even if it couldn't be bypassed, I'm sure there are outdoor-enthusiast 17, 18, 19 year-olds with enough wrinkles to get by, and on the same token, folks in their early 20s who'd fail...

"Swipe ID" seems like the best bet to me.

Especially ones who smoke.
