One thing we have been doing is setting up radiation monitors at ports. etc.

I was at a place where they were testing them (big things that container trucks drive under. The guy had a paper cup of liquid, would get in his car and drive through, get out and tweak some dials - drive through again, etc. It was amazing that this stuff that he was carrying (bare hands, street clothes, etc.) was enough to set off the sensors.

That's fascinating, thanks for sharing that. I have no idea how this kind of technology works or how sensitive it is so any hard info is interesting.

I wonder if Nancy thinks this is overkill, since Al Qaeda isn't really that big a deal.

Unfortunately, it does no good if they put it in a truck and drive it over an isolated part of the border ( Northern or Southern ).
