Special shoe-scanning equipment and a machine to permit coats to stay on? Hey Kip, why isn't the TSA deploying this?
becasue if the tee-ess-ay did it, then no one woould make any money other than the company that sells the machines. if clear does it, then a private company gets to price gouge right up there with the oil companies.
