Betty,
You remind me of my uncle, fun wise. He's moving to Mexico. He's in
his mid 70s. His wife, mid 60s, but I never asked. Anyway, I've been
looking at a house two blocks up the street I've always wanted, but
moving is such a pain. I'll stick with what I've got.
It's not must moving all the stuff, that's bad enough, but all the
services and everything, what a pain. And I have a 5000 gallon pond,
what would I do with that?
Like I said, you remind me of my uncle. Don't get to attached, give
things up and off you go.

Yes they have. So, you don't read the Guardian or the Register or
Wired? Early on, young hackers changed their grades on high school
and university computers, then it was the phone phreaks, then the
stolen remote codes for cars and trucks, then the hacked "blink"
cards/passes. Entire bank and credit card databases have been
compromised. It's a tiny step from there to hacking passports.
There have been stories about hacked passport chips for at least 3
years. The US isn't the only country with chipped passports.

Chipped passports won't stop us from enjoying our travel. The
thieves did me a favor. I got my new passport one month before the
RFID ones were issued. Danger? We look for disasters: Airfares and
everything else are cheaper after a scare, like the time we booked a
flight to Malaga after it was bombed by ETA, and paid less than 1/2
of the discounted price; luckily we left Alicante a day before it
was bombed two blocks from our apartment. We also went to southern
Turkey soon after 9/11 and loved it. Life is NOT boring!
