I wonder if the fact that I went and took an intro lesson a couple of
months ago makes me already "enrolled" by their definitions. ;-)

Nope. It makes you a potential terrorist by their definition.

Remember back to the 911 hearings? They asked someone from the FBI if there
had been any red flags before the attack.

"Senator", was the reply, "We were in a sea of red flags. We just didn't
know which were the important ones."

I think this was one of the most important lessons to come out of the
hearings.

TSA's response to threats is to red flag EVERYTHING! Then, if there is an
attack, they'll be able to say they had a red flag on the target. The folks
who make the U.S. flags that clip onto your car windows will make another
bundle and everyone will overlook the fact that the TSA didn't actually
secure anything.

You should be glad you have Canada to go back to.
