Nothing like a distraction to give a false sense of security, a true terrorist would just stick it up their...that's what I read, anyway.

I think my next European vacation will *not* be Paris.

Cool, I can't wait until the images start showing up on the internet!

So what is the French policy on underage passengers? Will everyone be subjected to the virtual strip search when this becomes mandatory?

No one seems to be considering that the US TSA will be come the largest viewers of child porn in the world. The TSA has already mislead the public about the scanners not having the capability to save images. It was later clarified that this function will be 'disabled'. What about cell phone and other cameras TSA takes into the viewing rooms? Of course these photos will be taken and of course it will leak out into the internet. Until then, every creep in the country is going to be lining up to take a job with TSA to get into the scanner viewing room.
Buh, buh, but the TSA says the Nude-O-Scopes are widely accepted.
