Are you David Nelson? 'It seems that a glitch in US airport security is causing headaches for men named "David Nelson." For some unknown reason (supposedly if "they" discussed the matter it would breach security) security computers give a "no fly" or "potential terrorist" warning whenever someone named David Nelson attempts to board an airliner. My favorite workaround: (David Nelson) was stopped in February while flying with his family to Florida for a cruise. The airlines solved the problem for the return trip by making a simple name change. Nelson David passed through security without a hitch.' [kuro5hin.org]
