Awesome article! I noticed it included this line:
The researchers calculated for every 100 million passengers who fly seven one-way flights a year, six of them could get cancer as a result of the radiation exposure from the full-body scans.
The problems with these studies are that they are not really relevant to frequent flyers. Heck, there are lots of FTers who do mileage runs in which they fly seven (or more) one-way flights (segments) in a single weekend!
What I need to see is an article with results like this:
The researchers calculated for every X frequent-fliers who typically fly seven or more one-way flights a week, Y of them could get cancer as a result of the radiation exposure from the full-body scans.
Until then, I'm going to keep self-opting myself out of the nude-o-scopes.
