They're in all major cities now. They have this big white surveillance van they park outside some Seattle events. What are they doing? Who knows. But one year at Bite of Seattle it was sitting there empty with the door open and the keys in the ignition. Would have been a real coup if someone had stolen it.

Oh please please please, next time you see it! :-)

Madison isn't really a major city, though. Not population-wise, I don't think. It's a state capitol and college town, sure, but theres nothing major about this place.

[gillen]

Well yes, but major in the sense of being the seat of civil government for the state of Wisconsin...

and there's Parthenon Gyros. Be a shame if somebody flew a plane into it.

Always glad to oblige.

They might be running some test scenarios that see how prepared the local community is in case of terrorist attack.

Otherwise they might just be driving around trying to look cool.

It's just an image to provide substance to an otherwise transparent government organization.

i thought the same thing when i saw a homeland security suv stop in the home depot parking lot in plymouth, mn.

i guess i thought it was probably some illegal immigrant issue.
