Hi, Andy, thanks for being in touch. I'm forwarding this to

Jim Hoffman has discovered a document which I believe 
may be very important
to the 911 skeptic movement. This document superseded 
earlier DOD procedures
for dealing with hijacked aircraft, and it requires that 
Secretary of
Defense Rumsfeld is personally responsible for issuing 
intercept orders.
