BTW, July 25, coming home from Las Vegas, my wife and I were flagged for SSSS. We made the mistake of changing our flight from a one-stop to direct on the same airline the morning we flew home. I asked the ticket agent to remove the SSSS, but she said she could not. I guess that is my fault for not flying enough to maintain status on AA. At the checkpoint, TSA pulled my MP3 player, laptop, Blackberry, cell phone, and personal CD player for the swab test. Way to go, TSA.
At that time, I'm certain all electronics was the mantra being drummed into workers' heads.
