I don't know for sure that I'm on it. I do know that I can't check in online and I can't check in at a kiosk. I fly enough that I'm usually upgraded to first class so it's not like I'm just having bad luck.

A few years ago I thought I'd try taking a commuter jet from the air national guard base a few minutes from my house up to the big airport north of Houston. You'd have thought I was Osama himself. At first they acted like I couldn't get on the plane. And I'm at least a 10th generation American (from Western Europe), very white and very American looking! Finally a security guy pulled me aside, patted me down and then some and let me on the plane.

Damn, I'm going to have to start visiting your place. I'd hate to be on a list for being social with a terrorist!
