    Amara,
           That is not the "Patriot Act II" as you labeled it but the Patriot Act
    of 2001. The article describes some of the things I have said would happen.

           My belief is that the 2001 act was hastily passed after 9-11 at a time
    when politicians wanted to be seen "doing something." As it was an act in
    haste our system of safeguards is closing in on the act and will have pulled
    its teeth before too much longer. Parts of the act that are not contrary to
    our law and constitution, if any, will probably survive.
    Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
    Ron h.
