You are right. Terrorists really don’t need to do much to get anything to screech to a halt.

a suspicious package was found.
The 3.5 inch disks that the Obamacare.com code is contained on....
7inch black floppies and holarith cards.
(Remember those?)

I did some programming back in the 60s on punch cards but that was the IBM era. Hollerith was a bit even before that I think.

You’re welcome. But, it looks like you were on top of this as the airport is reopening like you said.

Intriguing point. Is it still possible to walk across America without interacting with the authorities/constabulary?

“Birmingham UK?”
Given the location of the TV stations reporting it I think it is Birmingham Alabama.
(The place the town in the UK was named after S/O)

Packages are generally trusting by nature.

“I have yet to see a package actually be suspicious, at least in our country.”
Hey, consider yourself lucky.
This package was beyond suspicious. All the other packages were calling him silly, paranoid, and even coward.
Things were really heating up fast, when some of the big packages started pushing him around - hard. That’s all it took. The little guy blew his top - and blasted all the other packages to smithereens.
