As one of you aptly noted, “DHS is serious about this ‘internet’ thing.” Here’s a little more on why Homeland Security cut New York’s antiterrorism funding:

C’mon, Secretary Chertoff, cut New York a little slack. Have you ever tried filling out a PDF with tooltip text? E-filing can be such a bitch!
