Gave me the first smile after going through TSA.....
Yes, it's a nice touch, and in general, Billy Mitchell Field in MKE is a pretty nice airport.
Two things that would make it better:
(1.) Often when I am transiting, TSA is using the Re-Combobulation site for shift meetings, taking over the table and all the chairs. That sort of eliminates the charm of the Re-Combobulation sign.
(2.) A few of the Milwaukee County Sheriffs and TSA at MKE (a very small minority) lack any sense of composure or humor. Most famously, at FT, the FT'er whose trip was interrupted at MKE when he wrote "Kip Hawley Is an Idiot" on his plastic bag with 3.1 oz liquids in it. Hence, "KPIAI" as shorthand for all that is humorless and stupid about TSA.
It all started here, with a post about what message FT'ers should write on their plastic bags...
