Odd questions by Customs
I returned from HKG through SFO today.

When I walked the Customs gauntlet after collecting my baggage, they were asking everyone who was leaving several questions; how long were you gone, where did you go, why did you go. Routine. Then the last question was new: How much money are you bringing back from overseas? This is the first time I've been asked this; is this new to everyone else too?

Shouldn't that question be asked when you're LEAVING the US?
