Just want to give a huge thank you to the Chevron Oil Refinery and the El Segundo Police Dept. for their hospitality and for avoiding the strip search and cavity check in their homeland security exercises of inspecting my personal items and camera images. Apparently in our "heightened state of alert",photography of infrastructural buildings are suspect to terrorist activities. Not to say that I'm upset, I'm more or less conditioned to the institutional implementation of fear to its masses. I was free to go after a full written report and an explanation that I wasn't a terrorist. At least, they let me keep the pictures.
