Welcome to Flyertalk.
As has been posted before, the minute the TSA stops treating you and your mom as potential (or suspected) terrorists, the bad guys will somehow morph into 74 year old grandmothers and 99 year old great-grandmothers. Or at least they will recruit people like you to do their bidding.
