[Noisebridge-discuss] HELP! Passport emergency

[Kate McKinley]

If you have a flight within two weeks, you can make an appointment at
a regional passport agency, there is one in SF. You can also wait in
line at the agency, and get seen on a first come / first serve basis.
No ID is harder, but you should not have to pay someone else, other
than the US State Department.
