In both cases the industry-friendly Bush Admin is refusing to order the most effective security measures (IST in facility security, re-routing in rail security), so has devised a Rube Goldberg-like complex process that will allow regulated companies to avoid using these most effective measures. The rail equivalent to your Guide may be the Routing Tool being developed with a $5 million grant by that independent objective group (not)-- the Railroad Research Foundation. Good luck getting a copy of that, also... Fred MillarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
