And LAS is the worst! Even the Plat line is long, and most of it is about electronics. I don't even recall when this began, though I know it was recent. Anyone know why each piece of electronics must be in a separate bin? Is it at all airports? I'm just seeing more and more congestion at the security line and while I don't mind leaving earlier to appease the TSA, I wonder if I need to do this at every airport.

Just wondering!
Wait a minute-I thought Blogger Bob & his buddies said the 'all electronics out' mandate was the work of a few rogue screeners (somewhere) & had been dealt w/thanks to it being reported on the blog? If I'm not making this up (been driving for 6+ hrs vs. flying to LA to avoid the TSA, btw!), then see if there's a 'Got Feedback' thread for any of those airports you mentioned in the original post & submit a comment. Can't hurt.

Of course, if I am simply confused, then just ignore me
