25 years ago at FRA the security woman made me snap a photo with my 35mm camera to prove it was a real camera. I pointed it at her, she shoved her thumb into the lens and forced it to point down. I was at the end of a trip, that was my last shot on the roll, so I was ticked... and didn't have a lens cloth to clean her thumbprint.

Clicking the shutter didn't prove anything.
