I don't need to put up with anyone shouting instructions at the security line, especially if I've been waiting in a long, snaking line--and most especially if it's an early am flight and I've yet to have my morning brew. If this is the new procedure, how hard is it to put up an f-ing sign? That alone would be a great step in speeding up the line.

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Everyone with a laptop had to take them out of the bags and run them through the scanners. It seems like a number of people could not follow the instructions that were very clearly shouted, as they would send their laptops through in bags, just to have them stop the belt, hand them back to the person, and tell them again that they had to be out of the bags. After clearing the scanner, each laptop was carried over to a side counter to be swabbed and tested.[/B]</font>
