The gummint is going ahead with CAPPS II despite airline opposition.  I believe it can be shown that CAPPS II is AT LEAST as susceptible as CAPPS to "safe" probing to determine which of your operatives are unlikely to be selected for additional screening, and the "registered traveler" program alluded to in the article leads me to believe that it is now possible to arrange (at the cost of a period of advance work) to make your selected operatives LESS likely than the average passenger to be screened.

May I suggest an alternate source for the link (thanks to the Washington Post's invasive cookie/registration practices)?

here (http://www.thesunlink.com/redesign/2004-01-12/nationworld/374575.shtml), perhaps.

That's awesome. If you have money and travel all the time, you obviously can't possibly be a terrorist...
