There's time on mass transportation (non-airborne). There's time while waiting for my wife. There's time in the doctor's office till I get called. There's time when what's on TV just doesn't grab me. That's just the start of a pretty lengthy list, and TSA is not involved in any of these.
Agreed. There's always a few library books around here--I go through them fast enough to always have some checked out unless I'm going to be away.
