George, I thought your readers might be interested in knowing that the Justice Department will be asking thousands of Americans -- from postal deliverers to truck drivers -- to watch for "suspicious, and potentially terrorist-related activity". This program (progrom?) is call Operation TIPS. When workers "identify suspicious or unusual activity", their reports will be recorded in a national database. (The database has yet to be named, but I might suggest GUPI -- Guilty Until Proven Innocent or Gobs of Unsubstantiated Paltry Information). You can learn more about volunteering to be a spy by going to George Bush's Citizen Corps website. www.citizencorps.gov When 1984 came and went without George Orwell's premonitions coming true, I thought we had escaped "big brother". Oh brother! We're there now. David RePass (electronic mail, July 17, 2002) Update March 2018.
