I'm not so sure the kids won't spend the money for a passport, Ichy...Look how expensive the xBox's and the iPod's are...the kids think NOTHING about ordering music at $1 each from a site, or on a card....and they certainly go to many concerts where the tickets are $50 each or more. Their speciality clothes, and sports gear are expensive, and the accessories for the iPods aren't a giveaway either.

Sorta makes passports look a good deal!


Well you may be right, but since so much of the economy in this area is based on tourists, and they are whining about how much tourism dropped since the idea of passports has come in. Last night I was with some younger folks and they were talking about going over the river to party on Firday night, and the one working in the tourist industry was sure he needed a passport, of course he would have if he was flying, that comes in this month.
