I've pretty much ruined

any chance I ever had of getting a gov't job that might require a security clearance, I think. Appealing as the idea of an analyst or sysadmin career at the Secret Service once I get my master's might be (it'd make for great Thanksgiving conversation, if nothing else!), there are some things more important than a nebulous possibility of a career in government work, and contacting the Attorney General as part of the ACLU's most recent campaign to get people to wake the hell up is one of them.

( This was mostly text provided by the ACLU, but I went through and made a few changes to reflect my own feelings, then had them fax it to Mr. Ashcroft. )

I think I'm allowed to get my morning cereal and shower now.
