[Trust but Verify]

There is no way to please some people. As I said on another thread, they're damned if they do, and damned if they don't.

I excerpted this story. There's more if you follow the link. I was only barely aware of this proposed system, and the rest of the story is clear that not many details are going to be forthcoming. But the system is going to do things like credit checks, etc. Of course, you're going to have to give your SS# when you buy a ticket, since "Robert Jones" is not enough ID to do any sort of check.

This is gonna scare a bunch of folks...of course it'll also free up some extra seats on the airlines.
