A TEEN WITH THE "WRONG" NAME has airport security troubles. His guilty father ruminates (all too kindly, IMHO) about cause, effect, and CAPPS.

Most interesting is the suggestion this family got for how to turn their "terrorist" son into someone more acceptable. If they could do that, then what's to stop any real terrorist from evading the no-fly list name game in the same way?

(Thank you lamb_of_grace, whoever you may be.)
