I would urge you, RSSrsvp, to respond to him and inform him of that fact.
I did already over the weekend whe I emailed her back the following:
Dear XXXXX,
Upon reviewing your reply a second time I noticed an error on your part. ID is not required to travel domestically. You simply present your boarding pass to the ID checker and declare that you have no ID on you. You will be sent to secondary screener for an additional pat-down and explosives wipe of your palms, shoes, carry-on bag and maybe a hand check of your belongings.
Are you aware of this fact? From your reply, you were not.
Best regards, RSSrsvp
