Chris, the security reason is very likely. GW is over here right now. We 
have ill tempered mutant koalas with SAMs and sniper rifles
stationed on every street corner and roof top. A crack unit of SAS kangaroos 
is on standby.
Cheers

I had just finished shooting a refurbished Canal Barge boat in Belle Chasse 
when the F-15s started flying over. The base is right 
across the canal. Usually the jets have "River Rattlers" painted on the fuel 
tanks but these did not. W was in town that morning so 
whether or not these were extra "security" I don't know. All they did was 
take off,circle, and then land again for about 30 minutes.

Chris
