TSA: Don't keep the change
 
An article in the WSJ regarding all the change left behind at checkpoints:


“The TSA has been keeping the pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters from your change purse to pay for their bloated bureaucracy,” the bill’s sponsor, Rep. Jeff Miller (R., Fla.), said in a written statement Tuesday. “I would much rather see unclaimed change go to help military personnel on their way home from the battlefield.”
Even though it's only a half mil, and a drop in a very large bucket, it's good to start somewhere.

Don't keep the cell phones, laptops, watches, etc either!

Thieves do what they do. Nuff said.

Right! They will steal it. Don't leave behind. You have be more responsibilities. Don't lose it. You have put cell phone, watches, iPhone, DVD player in the carryon bag. Don't leave behind at security checkpoint. You have watch your stuff.
