Actually, they have. They have given us a heads up, so that the person they were following would make it to the gate with intent to fly. They were following someone and they gave us a photo description so that we wouldn't pull the person aside and spook them.

I wasn't attempting to "flatter" myself. I was just trying to make a point that sometimes there is more to a given situation than what the TSA or the media puts out. So, did any of your "pretty high classification level" reports go into any detail about this event?
