[Med-privacy] DHS chief floats idea for collecting private citizens' information

[Jeff Williams]

All,

  Here is a scary idea Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff
just floated.  It should sink shortly I would hope...

  Such an idea in the minds of most americans and most especially
members is not even worth consideration as the potential dangers
of abuse are very great.

Regards,
