RE:"Intel does 60% of its business outside of the U.S. Other tech companies depend just as much on international markets. It's very important to realize that tightening our borders can have adverse affects on the global economy. I'm not against tighter security. I'm just against being dumb about it, as Portland INS apparently was. The good news is that there is tons of room for improvement, and I believe we can have borders that are both open and secure." Actually I was not talking just about visitation. Visitation is one thing...illegal immigration is another. RE:"We have to be smart about it, though." No doubt. What was the reason the INS gave? Usually when I hear stuff like this and the real reason comes out, the INS was justified. In the beginning howver, the INS is proudly made out to be like the gestapo by some upstart reporter looking for a story... Jim
