thanks Tom.  perhaps i need to be more full disclosure on my mocking ripostes..
(reality so fscked it's hard to tell the difference? ;)


for the record, i sailed through customs with two laptops, three
phones, one tablet, and one high performance Noctar SDR card without
any trouble. (and a pelican 1550 checked bag full of stinky clothes)


i would be curious to know if anyone encounters a border crossing this
summer where powered on electronics are then taken from you for
:"further inspection".
