Goalie:
You are pretty much right on the money in your comments. I spoke with 2 bdo's this afternoon & told them what I observed. They said all jewelery etc must be removed before entering the "nude o scope" & that people almost never do it, thus the alarms & the feel good pat downs. Besides the privacy issues this all seems like such a stupid waste

One other thing, those bdo's told me that in approx 2 years we would not have a choice that the "nude o scope" will be required. To which I told them I've taken my last airline flt. when that happens.
