Please tell us what the proper course of action would be to protect our shores from vessels under 100'. Mines? Nuclear subs laid out every mile or so, maybe anchored CG Vessels every few hundred feet or so as a deterent?

You can waltz into the country without clearing anything or having to talk to anyone.
Period.

Actually, they do: http://www.us-cert.gov/

"The United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) is a partnership between the Department of Homeland Security and the public and private sectors. Established in 2003 to protect the nation's Internet infrastructure, US-CERT coordinates defense against and responses to cyber attacks across the nation."

I get an almost daily email informing me of vulnerabilites, most often with - you guessed it, Microsoft, and I'd venture most mentioned is, yup, IE...

Now everyone from MACs, to Firefoc, to *nixes get listed, but Microsoft warnings are like what AOL discs were not long ago - Everywhere...

NTBugTraq and BugTraq are where they get their information.

Just copy and paste and make it look official.

"if these liquids are potentially dangerous, why is security dumping all of them into huge containers in the middle of big crowds of people?"

I'd like to know the same thing please.
