REDUX: Second life for news that matters 7/14

BTC -  Looks like BLIZZARD and the TSA made populist end arounds.

You still have until Monday to tell The Chief  how that makes you feel.  Coalitions are forming now to give you 90 more days to get in there and make your 2 cents count.

Here's second life for news that matters.

By the way, we are still working to get a class action lawsuit going in NC against the biometric data collection and the basic adoption of the Real ID policies.  If you know of people who want to join, please send them to www.ncard.info to sign up.
