#1 Can't keep this info secret that we saw it coming and managed to warn them, gotta give it away!

Anyway, now that it's out there, I wonder if the Patriot Act had anything to do with it? And if it will be given any credit. And if it did have anything to do with it, if the idealists would not have acted on the information because it was obtained "immorally".

#2 A US official told ABCNews.com that the intelligence reports led to the assignment of Federal Air Marshals to flights into and out of both Glasgow and Prague. Air marshals had been added to flights into and out of Germany late last month, based on similar warnings.

Prague and Germany, too? I'm awfully glad Mr. Wife is back from his last round of peregrinations, and not due to go out again for a while.
