I agree with you Bruce. It is virtually useless to have a discussion with the non flyer or once a year flyer. They just don't get it. And I am afraid I could "stress out" if I hear that da*n statement " it that is what it takes to be safe" again. How stupid can so many people be?

As I reported elsewhere, I have been virtually unable to have an intelligent discussion of the merits of the new "security" procedures with anyone who is NOT a frequent flyer. Almost all other people believe that all the nonsense taking place at airports these days is justified, and I have not been able to persuade them otherwise. The politicians and others with real power won't demand change unless the public does, and that's generally not happening. It seems hopeless to me, unfortunately.
