34. This is scary stuff.

I wouldn't touch this with a ten foot pole as a system for automated counting. For human counting it might be ok.

The problem is that people can't easily read a bar code, they have to trust what the talkin' computer tells them.

Then the system implementors have to trust that someone hasn't messed with the python interpretor, or the programs that verify things like python interpretors.
