hey, hey, any ATSer in that area might wanna pay attention to non-normal activities around these areas.

This was almost a month ago. I wonder what has happened to the eco-terrorist?

Like the box-cutter guy, he says he was just trying to show the weaknesses in all these security measures. Considering:
""The person in question is 62 years old, overweight, arthritic, diabetic, half-blind and a cancer patient living on a minimum of 12 medication pills a day.” He said the Bush administration’s hunt for overseas terrorists overlooked domestic security weaknesses."
He's either telling the truth, or just plain nuts.
