From the Buffalo News:
Mayor Ted Salci was beaming with pride as he sat in his office and rattled off a list of recent tourism success stories in this city.
Two booming casinos. Twelve major hotels built since 1996, with four more in the planning stages. Two spectacular golf courses, with another on the way. A $130 million water park and hotel that opened in April.
But the mayor’s smile became a grimace at the mention of one word: passports.

I actually saw a local news report on this subject last evening. The reporter said that the wait times to get a passport after the first of 07 and 08 will go up to anywhere between 6-14 months depending on how bad the rush is. They are advising people get the paperwork in asap. They also stated the proposed delay in the process wont be happening. I really hate this plan.
