answer the questions truthfully and they can not detain you??? yeah, that's what it says. BS. ask any of us who have been detained by the zealots. I was detained 36 hours at LA, 18 at Dulles, etc. If you've made the list, you've made the list, and a custom's inspector with a bug up his ass is a nasty person. Rule 1: smile regardless of the adversity Rule 2: other than the three questions on the form, say nothing Rule 3: never use LA or Dulles -pick an airport with humans. well, I guess I had better admit it; the travelling public got their money's worth in LA. after customs had shredded and Xray'd everything and I was tired, very tired after the long one from New Delhi to LA, I was hostile enough to humiliate them sufficiently to close all nearby lines --then I mooned them. TS and the red mask can be a wonderful excuse! I guess I just havent learned --and I was over 50! Dulles was previous history.... oh, yeah, they have not bugged me for some time. __________________________________________________________________________ go not unto usenet for advice, for the inhabitants thereof will say: yes, and no, and maybe, and I don't know, and fuck-off. _________________________________________________________________ attila__ To be a ruler of men, you need at least 12 inches....
