the women at customs seemed pretty straight forward. I told her that I went to Maryland law school and was researching customs and internet orders from over seas.
She talked about some stats program that they use to "statistically" pull a random number of packages for inpection. She also said that they pull out and inspect suspicious packages. I asked her to explain suspiscious...the reply was a laugh and "I can't give all of our secrets away"....
She also said the bigger ports of entry...newyork, chicago ect. do deal with issues slightly differently. Depending on the director of that area...but she did not elaborate!
