This is a very fasinating book that relates well to current events and the rush to judgment against 911 which has decayed all of our freedoms

Yes, I thought so too... Particularly in light of the recent Supreme Court confirmation hearings when Joe Biden told Roberts that he would have to rule on RFID cards during his tenure on the bench...According to the Traveler, these cards contain all your personal information and can be read by anyone who has the technology.

Hey elynther, check out this article about the new RFID sensors in passports...It's like right out of the book!
