Don't Lie...

...because that is what will become the issue.

Simply state that you desire to fly without presenting an ID. I wouldn't even start out as confrontational. If they find your DL when they read everything in your wallet, it's no big deal. You never said you didn't have an ID -- just that you decline to present it.

I don't know how you would coordinate this nation-wide, except through FT? It would be great if it got wider visibility through use of various blogs, etc -- maybe even the TSA blog itself!

Here's an idea -- maybe the best day to do this would be the first day that READ ID becomes effective. It will be chaotic enough with just the new "procedures" and the document checker workforce inability to deal with it. Adding a few dozen/hundred additional protesters who deliberately do not present an ID would ensure a complete train wreck.

This day would be the best chance to have local media present with Kippie, Chertoff, and the usual cast of Spokesholes primed & ready with their statements that "It worked like a charm" or "The first day went extremely well with only a few delays" etc.
