Your right, and the loading port would be better even if it wasn't for the constraints. I was thinking of xraying them but even that would be next to impossible at sea, and then what do you do if one looks suspicious ? Just the same the system we now have for containers is weaker than the security was on the airlines, and one hell of a dirty bomb could be on the way even as I write this..( several of them are more likely on the first attack as they know we will cover the hole fast after the first one. ) But closing that hole won't do the people much good after the fact in whatever ports they hit. -------------- I'm willing to bet if we don't cover it and fast we will regret it in a big way.
