New Form Of Screening At Us Immigration

[Jimjim]

Do they profile regular/frequent travellers - and keep those notes at hand ?

U bet - I got asked when I came back form he USA recently if I was carrying any GM plant material - nothing about porn, drugs, un-decleared cash above whatever one can bring in without declearing, or anything else - it was very specific - any GM plant product or material?

Odd - yes, unless of course you know what I do for a living (grow corn and am good buddies with Monsanto and very pro GM crop development)?

Was that just co-incidence? I doubt it. They could have asked me about bringing in a dozen things I wasn't supposed to, but they quoted that specifically.

I have a friend who is a foreman at a Pontiac car plant factory in the USA. As they fall under the GM umbrella of companies, I wonder if a less-than-astute official will end up questioning him along the same lines when he arrives.

I think he was talking about Genetically Modified plants, not the car company.

But I think you know that.

Indeed I do, and I regret now attempting to temporarily lighten the mood of this thread covering the despicable acts of this convicted pedophile. I suppose it's a defense mechanism I have trouble suppressing when provoked with anger. I apologize.
