The industry is so over developed and crowded that just a slowing in growth causes panic and a 10% drop in the number of boating households would be right up there with an asteroid wiping out Florida. How many people do you think would decide to take up some other recreational activity if they needed a license? This will fit very nicely with the DHS real agenda. If you are looking for the needle in a haystack of a terrorist in a pleasure craft, the fewer straws out there, the better. I wonder whether you can still enlist in a pilot training course and tell them that you don;t want to be bothered in learning how to land an airplane? In a more sensible mode, can anyone tell me where the HLS got all their trained and experienced personal? From abroad it (HLS) appeared to blossom into being almost over night with agents everywhere. Where did they all come from? Bruce-in-Bangkok (Note:remove underscores from address for reply) |

Have you heard that in UK it has just been found that hundreds, or even thousands, of people working in 'security' jobs were given these jobs without a check first to see if they were legally able to work in UK at all? Some even got jobs in Government Departments,, including at least one in the Home Ofice itself |
