If [the SSN is] not valid,
the person at the other end tells us that "This person should contact the
Social Security Administration, since there is something wrong with their
number." They don't really care if it indicates that the person is an
illegal alien.

In a perfect world, they would send the gendarmes over to arrest the
illegal...


You mean, the same way it works in the ADIZ if ATC makes a boo-boo?

I'm not in support of illegal aliens, but I disagree that "closing the
borders" will solve any of our problems. I also disagree that zero
tolerance is a good solution for anything, be it drugs, work rules,
terror, or aviation errors.

It's not "closing the borders" -- it's "controlling the borders" -- and you
don't think that doing so will solve ANY of our problems?

Hmmm,
Jose's Aircraft INC,....come on down and let our dopehead mechs rebuild
the engine on your Cessna! Take a ride with the drunk CFI for the thrill of
your life! Come fly with us as we smuggle terrorists into the country! But
wait ...sorry we can't ...we don't have any work rules and no one has shown
up

Jose's Aircraft School dot COM... you don't even have to come on down -
we'll train you where you are. Using the latest Microsoft Flight
Simulator 1997 we'll teach you how to fly a 747 without even leaving
your seat - AND with our exclusive ActiveNewsFeeds (flash and Kazza
required) we'll even give you loads of reasons why you'd want to.

Flight tests given by modem (56K or better connection required)! BYOB,
and we'll have one too!

Never mind the expense and risk of smuggling in terrorists - use the
ones right in your own home town!

But wait... sorry, we can't... there's an embargo on ideas.
