BART security & strike news

BART wants $215 million for security upgrades, including for "chemical sniffers." A BART director was dismayed by Homeland Security Secretary Chertoff's comment that "A fully loaded airplane with jet fuel has the capacity to kill 3,000 people. A bomb in a subway may kill 30 people."

Meanwhile, a train rider had problems using BART's intercom system to contact an employee about an odd passenger.

A BART strike is still a possibility; workers might not ratify their contract.
