So, where exactly did this happen? And when?
San Diego late last year/early this year - it was warm there and cold in DC. I alarmed the WTMD and the wand alarmed onthe zipper on my right pant leg. I've since learned not to fly in these pants.
I've seen wands in use in COS (Colorado Springs) as recently as two weeks ago.
