I read somewhere that some business people that have to travel a lot by air and are "fed up" with 9/11 security have gone to FedExing or UPSing their baggage to their hotel. They get to the hotel and their stuff is waiting for them. Gordon PS: After thought. Wonder if someone traveling with no baggage would trigger a "red flag" with the security. I did read about a man that went (I think) by air from LA to SF with a lot of cash to purchase cars or something at an auction He went just for the day and only stayed a few hours. They tagged him as a drug dealer and took his money away. They never charged him with anything, but at the time I read the article he was still trying to get his money back. I think is was something like $20,000. -- ,,, (. .) +-------------------------ooO-(_)-Ooo------------------------+ | Gordon Talge WB6YKK mail: gtalge AT silcon DOT com | | Department of Mathematics Norwalk High School Norwalk, CA | | (o- Debian / GNU / Linux | | //\ The Choice of the GNU Generation | | v_/_ .oooO | | - E Aho Laula - ( ) Oooo. - Wider is Better - | +-------------------------\ (---( )-------------------------+ \_) ) / (_/
