Re: weasel words: "no evidence that the N.S.A. has implanted its software or used its radio frequency technology inside the United States"

It might be possible to bring this location versus target discussion into a more publicly accessible form by having a little vignette, something like "A is a citizen of B, and is just now boarding a flight from C to D which will, incidentally, overfly B as well as E and F. Which of B, C, D, E, or F can assert a lawful authority to monitor A's phone calls, and how can they know when can they do it?" perhaps followed by the notion that a satellite phone call has a similar sort of little vignette around it. --dan
