IMO data should be kept on those here on VISAs. It should not be kept on citizens. Of course the problem with that logic is that this nation is willing to allow anyone to become a citizen. As that trend as grown, citizen's rights had to be impinged to keep track of the government's errors of admittance.

Once again, it boils down to managing our immigration and naturalization processes. Even a second grader could tell you that he doesn't want a bully in his own class. Why can't our government extrapolate that same premise to the community level?

"A leader at Acxiom Corp. of Little Rock said Wednesday that Acxiom databases contained information on 11 of the 19 hijackers involved in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C."

What kind of info do you think they had? If Big Brother is going to further invade my privacy at airports, I'll fly less. Like I told Dollar Rental Car to pi$$ off when they wanted my right thumbprint in Las Vegas the other weekend.

several of the airplanes certainly would have had extra security directed at them

All airplanes would have extra security if they'd just allow people who can demostrate clean records and proper training to go armed.

General Wesley K. Clark Joins Acxiom Corporation Board of Directors

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6, 2001--Retired U.S. Army General Wesley K. Clark has joined the Board of Directors of Acxiom®Corporation, Acxiom Company Leader Charles D. Morgan announced today.

Clark retired in 2000 after a highly distinguished and decorated 34-year military career, culminating with a successful tenure as Supreme Allied Commander, Europe, and Commander in Chief of the U.S. European Command.

``General Clark offers tremendous global perspective, technology expertise, public policy insight and proven leadership, and Acxiom is very pleased he has agreed to join our Board of Directors,'' Morgan said.

``In the 21st Century, information - the ability to assemble it, integrate it and understand it - will be one of the most important drivers of the global economy and its security,'' Clark said. ``I look forward to this great opportunity to support Acxiom in building an information infrastructure required by our nation and our world.''

Upon becoming the Supreme Allied Commander, Europe, in 1997, Clark was in overall command of NATO's military forces in Europe - some 75,000 troops from 37 NATO and other nations involved in the ongoing operations in Bosnia-Herzogovina and Kosovo - with responsibility for safeguarding an area extending from the northern tip of Norway to the eastern border of Turkey. In 1999, Clark commanded the alliance's military response to the Kosovo crisis.
