Hi All,
The only reason I am posting this is because I
have defended America on this list and elsewhere before.
I wish this to be taken as one best friend speaking to
another.
Background
I was born in Bahrain (Persian Gulf) and
left there when I was six months old.
I have two passports, Canadian and UK.
30-40% of my work is in the USA.
Due to the new INS regulations
I am photographed and fingerprinted when I cross
the border
I have to check in at an INS office when I arrive
at my destination
I have to check in at an INS office when I leave
my destination
Use of my other passport to enter the US will define
me as "suspicious"
Please note, this in no way prevents me from working in America,
however, I can no longer go skiing in Whitefish.
(The nearest INS office is 2 hours south in Missoula, I believe)
Walt, Steve, whats the snow like in Bozeman this year? I'm
allowed to go skiing there. :-)
Sigh ......
Dave
