I got bored trying to read 121 posts so I'll just jump into this as if I was the first to answer. There is technology out there that would allow installing card readers without having to lay miles of cables. TVs could sell the cards (I doubt TVs would give them away) for a small price that would open the gate to pools, pickle ball courts, tennis courts, rec centers, etc. The purchaser would have to be verified through their green or blue Villager cards. It should have a picture to verify the identity along with an expiration date that requires re-certification of identity maybe every 2 years. Sounds like a PITA but it would eliminate most of the abuse people are concerned about. Maybe it reduce some of the personnel overhead we pay for through our amenity fees.
