apparently, it's a new policy—you can be asked for all of that info if you don't have a picture ID that they consider valid.
i'm a reporter with a big city paper in NYC, and i'm trying to find flyers who've gone through that experience at JFK or LGA, specifically.
if you fit that description, reply to the thread, or better yet, email me at

thanks so much!

More of a questioning technique than hassle. An evasive person will stammer and studder as they try to think of the most correct answer, a non-evasive person will answer matter-of-factly and then ask why they need to know, and a FTer will denounce them as satanic drones with Hitleresque intentions and demand to speak to the FSD, Chertoff, and their lawyer...while posting on here. Either way, the TSA accomplishes their mission. Good luck on the story.
