Well my most recent AMS-USA flight (February) was on NW metal, and there I got interviewed.
On my last two AMS-NYC flights on KL metal (October and November 2004) I thought I got the interview. But it's possible I only had to go through the WTMD/xray check at the gate and didn't get interviewed. I'm not 100% sure. But they definitely had the extra WTMD/xray at the USA-bound KL metal gates.
