Check. I didn't realize you weren't a regular here.
Yes, I think that most here are not only well-versed on the rationale behind state and national ID schemes but also specifically seek refuge from other sectors of Flyertalk to freely vent about what they believe are patent absurdities and rationalizations w/r/t security. The civil libertarian current in here is strong to borderline strident, to be perfectly blunt. :-:
