It justs keeps getting better (joke). When the media continues to report that people are afraid to fly, everyone thinks it because of fear of terrorists. In reality, it is fear of those at the checkpoints.

By the way, after about a dozen passes, with a couple hand inspections, they went after my cheap corkscrew (those little ones the hotels give you). I had to control myself while watching him go through my bag. He moved one corkscrew out of the way to get to the other one. He took it. Missed my nail clippers too. Thanks for the laughs.
To misquote a former president:
"We have nothing to fear, except ourselves"
