Blogger aboard the Diverted Alitalia Flight

Blogger Nick Genes was aboad the Alitalia flight that was diverted from Boston's Logan Airport to Bangor, Maine. He writes about the interesting sequence of events and some interesting insights on the whole story as well as some questions for the authorities.

Two conclusions come to mind from this story -

1) The "watch-list" needs to be revamped or discarded for a better system.
2) The news is being increasingly reported by normal folk in their pajamas (a.k.a. bloggers).
