As I said earlier,the key is PREVENTION. Pouring money into CIA/FBI databases to monitor what they are up to while avoiding playing their fear game.

The only thing that gives me pause is the governments seeming willingness to bail them out I don't know exact statistic regarding how much first class and express mail goes by airplane but it does fill a good portion of cargo hold of these half full planes. Also, they are going to bail out airlines because if they don't CIT, the largest plane lessor in US, doesn't have an IPO and TYC goes belly up real quick. Government can have a TYC a $8 stock but could not afford to have it go to zero.

Since that time, federal pololice authority has grown to a large number of multi-letter agencies - FBI, CIA, INS, IRS, DEA, BATF, etc. Now we have the "Federal Air Transportation Airport Security Service." Can't you see them now, these highly trained men and women in their black outfits with their initials in large white letters across their backs: "FATASS." I feel safer already... "
