I remember I was very offended when I was labelled as an Alien years ago...
They have now become more diplomatic... Switched to using "visitors", at least in Newark and SFO.

ACC,
Are you talking about the one we saw at Dempsey in April 2003 with your old Porta???
If yes, I saw it too.
Airconvent should remember that incident as well.
