	**** Wow, that's cool. What I meant though was that browsing the database would mean seeing page after page of suspects without any searching. I consider adding hair color, eye color, distinguishing characteristics, etc. to a search part of facial recognition. As for it being what the guy does all day long, you've got the experience to know that that part is speculative. That said, I think that Thompson's surprise is mainly cause the guy found a matching photo and he didn't expect him to. Can we pick another name besides Facial recognition agent, blond agent and Thompson's friend that is not speculative?--[[User:MiamiVolts\|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts\|talk]]) 07:46, 27 May 2008 (EDT)		**** Wow, that's cool.

	*** Yeah, I really do. I used to work at a police station in a really rough part of Washington, DC, and I set up a database of mugshots collected over eleven years. Though the database was large, I included searchable characteristics--hair color, eye color, distinguishing characteristics, etc. One of the uses of the database was a digital lineup: victims of crimes would browse old mugshots in order to identify the suspect. Browsing the database was really not a very big deal at all. It required no expertise of any software (in fact, there was no specialized software used) and given a few details--like hair color and eye color--the search became very manageable.<br>Now, this agent certainly may be an expert at facial recognition and that may be his only job, but I find that highly unlikely, especially since Thompson seemed surprised at what the guy was doing. Calling him a "facial recognition agent" just makes it seem like that's what the guy does all day long. In the end, it's not the guy's main job (or even part of his job, probably), and it's speculative. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 07:18, 27 May 2008 (EDT)		*** Yeah, I really do.

	* So he goes to the bar with Thompson, calls him "dude", and he's not his friend?
