Re: Unnatural airport environment ...

["Rob Thompson" <my.security.lists () gmail com>]

Yeah, this sounds like BS to me.  My BS-o-meter is off the charts.

They may as well hand out joints, instead...or wait, not treat us all
like we're criminals???  I don't know about y'all, but I have done all
I can to stay out of airports.  I obey the law, but going through
their inspection makes me feel like I may as well have done something
wrong.  And there is NO flashing light or soothing sound that is going
to take that away.

But that's just my 2 cents.

Sorry about the top posting...

Rob.
