Within the last couple of months, the US State Department made the front page of the Washington Post because a contractor had conducted multiple training sessions on the actual passport database. For more information, see: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/21/AR2008032100377.html?hpid=topnews Before one undertakes an action where there are questions such as this one, I advise always asking if it will pass "the Washington Post test"? (Or NY Times, or...) "Would you want to read this on the front page of the Washington Post?" Ardoth Hassler Georgetown University
