Travis, check this out.

I predicted this "potential terrorist threat" scoring a while back, although I didn't expect it to happen this quickly.

Also note the propaganda associated with the "scoring" alogorithms. See how the 9/11 hijackers are listed as being very high on the list (after the fact of course). I have no doubt that certain variables in the program were tweaked to give the result with the objective of creating two selling points: 1) this could have stopped 9/11, and 2) only really, really bad guys will wind up on this list.
