That's weird because all the actual science about it says that it doesn't really work. Even the Israeli's say that it's marginal as a field activity and that they have to have people with actual degrees in psych & CogSci and the like along with constant training to get even vaguely reasonable results. I wish it wasn't SSI so that TSA could tell us how it works so well for them with their high school grads with their ~20 hours of training.
