I'm sure if there are any terrorists travelling this season, most of them are flying, with the ones carrying the bombs travelling by Greyhound, AmTrack, 1960's VW vans, yellow submarines, or some other route where they don't have to answer the question "Vere Are Your Important Papers" to Major Hochsteader^W^Wthe Travel Safety Administration. It really, really pissed me off that these people were allowed to board, and then taken off, rather than never being allowed on in the first place: it showed me that the security is all for the appearance of doing something, and that it nothing more than an illusion to allay the fears of the general public, without really addressing their causes (I knew that anyway, but it still pissed me off). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
