I can appreciate that we can’t let fear of terrorism run our lives, but I have to admit, I’d seriously reconsider going to the GOP convention if I heard about this:
[US News & World Report hears] that some conventiongoers are being asked to carry next-of-kin phone numbers on their persons, should emergency workers need to contact their relatives during the convention, set for August 30 to September 2 at Madison Square Garden.
Next-of-kin info? That’s right around the time I start canceling my hotel reservation.
