I just gave you regular VDs last night. Now you want the new and improved ones? I'm telling you, it's not worth it just to get in the "it's about supression" commercials.

Two that quickly come to mind are FEMA's registration for disaster relief and the online courses for most schools.

What's that? You don't want the government to have instant access to all your communications? What are you trying to hide? Please come with me.
