[...] I give this stuff away because I want to get my content out there—I want people to read it. I can’t make people like it, but if I can get my stuff in front of them, at least I might make them think a little. Occasionally, I many even prompt them to respond. And while this dialogue is a tiny little splash in the large pond of the Computer Internet, it is a splash nonetheless. My voice has been heard. I know it’s true—I got the fax. [...]

please keep posting more on this subject(how to hijack ***). Actually there is a more simple way to hijack a plane than everyone else have thought of, that is to book a plane and make every passenger a hijacker. Remember the recent movie Insider man? You don’t need hidden guns or knives in this way.

Good thing you’re not in the States, though. One of those faxes to Homeland Security, and they’d be round like a shot…

Two words. Sock bombs.

Of course, after two days travelling, a person's socks may already be classifyable as chemical warfare.

Having just spent 2 days traveling to and from Europe one must wonder why in hell would they ask anyone to remove their socks ? I went through this in Miami airport and now in Warsaw. Are they checking if my feet are clean? I mean what the fark could I possibly hide in a thin cotton sock? Can someone enlighten me here ???

Considering all the crap you couldn't take on a plane in recent years did that ever include lapel pins and broaches that women typically wear that have the 2.5 - 3 inch long pin/needle? That has to be one of the most dangerous implements out there! Oh wait am I stating the obvious or incriminating myself because I had an idea?

AC should have read your rant twice before knee-jerking out of his/her/its seat to write a fax. Stupid people make me laugh though.

"Even more shocking is the tone of the article, and other articles that are intending to harm people"

Which other articles, I wonder?

Whoops. Calgay is my typo. Funny. But mine.

To the AC's credit, the anonymous fax was actually sent anonymously (well, from the Hallmark store in Banker's Hall).

Have you faxed your rebuttal to the AC that faxed the Dean?
