I know. It IS frustrating.
However, I think part of the reason they don't tell is so that they can catch the bad guys. I am trying to be patient, although it is hard.

My first trip to Mazatlan about 5 years ago, I was shocked to see the Uzi-toting guards at the airport. It wasn't a real comfortable feeling.Sooooo. Didja get a green light when you pressed the button at the airport, or are they profiling???

Heads up. On Brit Hume tonight, the FNC homeland security reporter (can't think of her name) said there has been talk within government security agencies to raise the threat level from orange to red.
Brit didn't press her on the issue, but the segment was quite sobering ...
