Heather, your report from the border doesn't make me feel any better. *L* It does make me wonder though why people choose to go across the desert and sneak in when crossing through the gates sounds so simple? I would guess that this is part of the new love affair between Bush and Fox - and it doesn't look like either America nor Mexico are benefitting from the lax security.
PD - Castlehawke came home with a similar paper the week before last. Not smallpox vaccinations, but an 8-page printout that they made all of the Lockheed Martin employees take home regarding evacuation, emergency planning and "creating a disaster plan", and how to assemble a disaster kit with the most comprehensive list of things to put in it that I've ever seen (nearly 4 pages).
There's a close copy of it here on FEMA's site:

Lockheed is sending home these printouts.
City officials and emergency personnel are being "advised" or even "required" to get smallpox vaccinations.
But don't worry... heavy plastic sheeting and duct tape will save you. Oh never mind... we're reducing the threat level. Just go back to what you were doing and don't think about any of this...
*sigh*
