This morning while going through Checkpoint B in CLT the ID checker asked everyone their age.

Since it was too early for me to think I just responded instead of giving him a piece of my mind.

If checking ID names against the boarding pass is for the airline's revenue protection versus safety, why would he care how old I was. Why would he care how old everyone going through his check point was? It's not like I was carrying liquor through the check point.

Then the X-ray person was seeing imaginary liquids in my bag and had to rerun my bag after removing some contents. I love the fact that they can't detect anything of real harm.
