BD has a good point..... too much time and trouble hassling obviously innocent people, not enough time and effort spent working on real problems.....Harbors is a real threat, and since I live in LA, it is a real threat out here. There are 15Million containers a year through the LA harbor. That is roughly 40,000 a DAY. Now there is a challenge worth pursuing.....How easy it would be to put something n a single container and get it through the port security.... Especially once the Labor Unions take over control of security. I told this story before, watching some 6 year old girl get frisked at security : a flight from Kauai to LA a few years ago... Her seat was picked for extra special random examination ( My wife got lucky too). Saw the same thing with a 80+ year old grandmother.... all white bread types. Israel has dealt with this type of problem for years. They have a different pattern of looking for the bad guys than the US has. I still think that looking in the eyes of bad looking guys tells you something, and checking the pockets of a 6 year old tells you nothing. Now, how do I get to be King so I can fix this situation?

Google, but far more efficient + telephone listening etc. etc. B.
