LMAO, n-f-w will they ever get this off the ground, but god forbid, if it ever did work, it would take two shakes of a flying pig's tail to determine that "gee, we had good intentions but this machine isn't meeting the standards we were after". meanwhile after a bazzilion wasted haliburton type government contractor dollar's later.....

oh, and to answer your question-no, imho, i think we would still be stuck with the liquid ban and will still have to take our freedom baggies out and put them in the kippy bins for this wonder of all ages to sniff them. oh wait, "gee, we had good intentions but this machine isn't meeting the standards we were after".
