All passengers were being directed through the WTMD.

I about fell over and died...


I asked the TSA woman running the line what was up and she said it was a test/pilot program. I asked if it was related to the dog, and she actually acknowledged that it was.

I'm not getting my hopes up yet, but if this spreads a modicum of joy will return to air travel. I even took the time to express my pleasure with the process to the three striper in charge.
