Another county not heard from in a long while.

Regardless, neither the screeners nor the ticket agents have anything to do with who is selected for further screening, nor can they override the computer. However, there is nothing that prevents the screening managers from increasing the number of those to be further screened, they cannot decrease it.

Wait till CAPPS II comes along, then there will be no argument over who controls that.
