An article on the ap wire describes the Department of Homeland Security`s ATS (Automated Targeting System) program, designed to create an electronic database that rates and sorts air travelers according to their potential terrorism risk. The article states that "The scores are assigned to people entering and leaving the United States after computers assess their travel records, including where they are from, how they paid for tickets, their motor vehicle records, past one-way travel, seating preference and what kind of meal they ordered."
Civil libs aside, "meal preference" ??!

There may be some terrorist association with vegetarians. MJ was on some sort of watchlist when he last traveled but doesn't know why.
My theory: carrots=terrorist. Yep.
Maybe I could run for president on an anti-vegetable platform?
