If waits are going to be this long and longer, are there any other viable
options to A) Get a briefing and B) Have a record of the briefing? I can
satisfy "A" through the internet, but I'm not sure an online brief would
stand up very well in my defense if I busted a pop-up TFR or something,
especially since (presumably) there might not be a viable record of my
online brief.

DUATs.com or DUAT.com are the two other "official" flight briefing choices
that will record your session, from what I understand.

And "unnofficially" WeatherWorx, WSI and Jeppessen will too, and I believe
(??) thay will will assist you if a legal action results.

I use DUATs most flights. After getting the full results of the briefing, I
"save as" and change the filename to include the date before exiting the web
browser page. The .html file (mostly text) contains the date and
"transaction number" so I figure that is a fairly good proof that I got a
briefing. I much prefer a personal archive rather than counting on the
DUATS provider or the 'govment to cover my butt.
