That's effective security, right there.



Yes, the nuclear power plants where security officers must frequently meet physical agility requirements, clearly a foreign environment for the majority of TS "O"'s. Judging by the pictures posted on the net though, the TS"O"'s do have the edge in napping prowess.
And mentioning the US Army negatively in the same sentence as TSA? Beyond contemptible.




I spend more time in airports than I care to, an experience negatively enhanced by the presence of you and your ilk, so please can the attitude. Fact is that the problem you're talking of is a simple filter sizing issue, as any engineering undergrad could tell you. A small team of engineering students could also easily design autocleaning filters that even TSA would have difficulty messing up.
