      Sounds like one of those thriller movies where either they cut off a guys fingers to use his fingerprints to open doors or use his eye to do the same.

        one of those thriller movies

        I remember watching some movie (I can't remember which) in which a door was locked using a retinal scan.

        Well one of the characters enucleated a guard and used his eyeball to gain access. At the time, I thought, "Gee, I hope the scanner is programmed to do EITHER eye, otherwise the murderer would have to go and retrieve the other eye.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
