You need to remove your belt for the scanners. You don't have scanners. Secondary!

From Salon, a Pilot's experience when asked to remove his belt. Patrick Smith was the pilot.

Somebody, somewhere, needs to shake us from this stupor of blind policy and blind obedience. I'm beginning to wonder if this isn't some test -- a test of just how stupid Americans are. If TSA said that from now on we had to hop on one foot while humming "God Bless America," would we do that too?
