Very little here that we don't already know: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061122/ap_on_go_ot/passports_air_travel *except* for the bit in the third from last paragraph about the startlingly large percentages (between 25 and 42%) of Americans traveling to Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean who don't have passports. While the article doesn't come right out and say it, I won't be surprised if there's a big backlog at the passport office due to people suddenly realizing they need something they've never had to have before. Toronto NANOG is only about 70 days away. If you're planning on going and don't yet have a passport, getting your paperwork in ASAP would be a Good Plan. ---Rob
