[Tomas L. Byrnes] 
We were discussing airplane security. The Israelis profile, and it works. It's 
high time for us to start doing the same. 

If you want to talk about the larger security issues, then no, I am not mostly 
concerned with the Airplane as weapon. That was a one trick pony. What would 
keep me awake at night, if it were my job to do such things, would be a nuke in 
a container.
