The best use of facial recognition cameras is for old people watching TV:
"Isn’t he the one from that film?"
"No, you’re thinking of whatsisname. But the woman is in that other thing."
"The one we don't watch?"
"No, she's younger, and this one's blonde."
"David something!”
“Who?”
“The tall one.”

In your otherwise beautiful poem there is a verse that reads:“Every moment dies a man Every moment one is born.” It must be manifest that, were this true, the population of the world would be at a standstill. In truth the rate of birth is slightly in excess of that of death. I would suggest that in the next edition of your poem you have it read:“ Every moment dies a man. Every moment 1 1/16 is born”Strictly speaking this is not correct. The actual figure is a decimal so long that I cannot get it in the line, but I believe that 1 1/16 will be sufficiently accurate for poetry.
