These posts are getting old-- we know how you feel on the topic . . .
I'm not trying to express my opinion (other than the general idea that TSA's ID policies are ridiculous), but to correct seemingly mistaken beliefs about TSA policies. I welcome any suggestions for more effective ways to do so. I wish other people would speak up when someone here says showing ID to TSA is required. Despite my efforts to counter misinformation, this comes up about once per month in this forum. Maybe the moderators would consider stickying an "Airline passengers are not required to show ID at TSA airport checkpoints" thread.
