How about I perform on you the rub down I received at ATL? Or the one I watched at MSP? Or the one I received at LAX? They couldn't have all been SOP because they were all consistently inconsistent. Would that be OK?

While I appreciate it, giving people the "choice" of undergoing radiation exposure in a machine that has not been tested on human subjects for long-term tissue health effects by an individual who isn't trained extensively on safety of such devices that are now known to not be reliable in their output, or a genital rub with hands in the pants isn't simply "clearing".
