8-year-old on watch list

Mikey Hicks is 8 years old and has been subjected to extra scrutiny and searches at airports. He just happens to have the same name as someone who is on the watch list but he is paying the price for the other Michael Hicks. His mother said that at first it was amusing but that soon turned to anger. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/14/nyregion/14watchlist.html?no_interstitial
