This was on the bulletin board at work:

"Beginning January 8, 2007, all travelers to and from Canada, Mexico,
Bermuda, Panama and the Carribbean will be required to have a valid
passport if traveling by air or sea..."

I guess foot traffic is exempted? Tunnel traffic gets to go to the
first class line?

"... affect all US citizens entering the US from other countries..."

I had to listen to the illegal leaf blower corps this morning. I have
to see illegals enter & leave the contractor office in the building.

The passport is a good thing, but the Orwellian twists are too much
sometimes.
