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
