we drove down to u.s. customs and immigration this morning to get our nexus cards for speedy border crossing. we were fingerprinted, photographed, interviewed and sent on our way with two cards each. one has our pictures on it. the other one looks blank except it can be read by a special monitor that is located above the special nexus card holders lane. you flash your blank card at this thing (which is approximately 30 feet away) and all your relevant data comes up on the screen of the agent in the booth. then as you pass through, you flash him your picture id and if they don't do a spot check, you're on your way. i expected the black ink treatment for fingerprinting, but its high tech now. no mo ink. there was a bumper sticker on the car in front of us. i know you don't like bumper stickers - neither do i, except for the fish with little feet - but this was a good one. it said "it will be a great day when schools receive all the funding they need and the airforce has to hold a bake sale to buy a new bomber". joser
