I saw an interview on CNN conducted by Wolf Blitzer yesterday with the head (CEO) of the UAE port company that will be taking over our port terminal operations in 6 (or is it 21) ports. I don't like to judge a book by its cover, but the guy did not give the appearance of being a trustworthy or sincere person. His answers were canned and uniformed. Basically he said trust us and the U.S. government to get the security right at the ports. I had no reason to feel like I trusted him at all after the very uninspiring interview.

Our security is too important to roll the dice and trust unkown people who do not even give the outward appearance of trustworthyness. I'm not sure why people would want to take such a chance on our port security?

The problem is that there's a fella who follows some of us other fellas around SI and clutters up the boards with insults and useless drivel. All he does it cut and paste articles from the web and very rarely posts any of his true thoughts or opinions.

He did post some original thinking here earlier and he was promptly shown how wrong his view of the matter was. So he'll come back with more cut and pastes, and it goes on and on. He'll take a sentence you wrote, and flip a couple words, change your name to something like BW=Bowel Wipe, and post it back. He's sorta like one of those bashers that posts so much crap it distracts you.
