Shades Re: "bounty" You mean that in Australia there is actually a bounty on visa violators? In a couple of places I have lived the national police (who are really the military) get a bonus for catching an illegal. I wouldn't be suprised. What I have seen of the Australian immigration system is about the most cleverly run and operated government operation anywhere. Did they make your buddy buy his own ticket to Hawaii? Most places will first lock you up in their very roughest prison for months, even years first in the hope that you will get relatives abroad to send money for the plane ticket. Some places have an agreement with any of the airlines that they allow to land in the country that they will return any law-breaker that they brought in in the first place. Then the airline will dun you for the ticket. Australia may use that method. The USA has a very long way to go to get up to world standards in immigration control. Slagle
