Certainly, but the US sits on his nearby southern

border. Jakarta
doesn't. I enter Canada from two to five times per year,

and its
disappointing that the border constraints are in place,

but that won't
stop me. Petty bureaucracies exist in nearly every

place in the world,
and unless you choose to become a self-isolationist you

simply deal with
them and go about your business.


Seems to me you assume that because you find Canada worth

visiting
repeatitly... I should feel the same way about the USA. I

don't..... and
you shouldn't take that personally... get all insulted,

and claim I'm anti
American.


But this really has nothing to do with Moroon's

inconvenience or his
principles. He loves to grind the anti-US axe with

those of us here from
the US. So does Ozzy. It seems to be their cyber

recreational pleasure
of late. And we'd be remiss if we didn't call them on

it--hell, they'd
find no pleasure at all in a one-sided diatribe with no

opposition. So in
my own way I'm making it possible for you, Moroon and

Ozzy to enjoy your
time on ASA. You can thank me now or later.


Max.... if you consider getting fingerprinted merely an

inconvenience... we
just have to agree to disagree. I can supply security

documentation and
references... but this is not adequate to satisfy the US

Customs. If I view
their requirements as beyond that which I am willing to

provide.... how can
you state that as anti American? Does my personal decision

offend your
national pride? What makes you think I am short changing

myself because I
refuse to comply with a ridiculous request? I wouldn't

travel to any country
requiring that level of infringement on my privacy and

freedoms.
