So That's What "Code Orange" Means

The 9/11 Commission has released an updated version of its report -- now including information the Bush administration had withheld.

Among the new material: a newly declassified section showing the FAA's intelligence unit had gotten "nearly 200 pieces of threat-related information daily from U.S. intelligence agencies, particularly the FBI, CIA, and State Department."

It also shows that US aviation had been operating since 1996 on what is today considered "Code Orange." (USAToday)
