Thanks. Given the fact that TSA agents seem to operate with something approaching papal infallibility, and the fact that we're going to have our 10-month-old son with us the next time we fly from T5, I don't think I'm chancing going through security at another terminal. I don't think I'd be able to convince my wife to (a) go to check bags at T5 (b) take a shuttle from T5 to T3 (c) clear security at T3 (d) take an airside shuttle back to T5 just to get Pre - she wouldn't even walk to the other end of the terminal at MEM to go thru Pre when we flew out of there a few years ago.
