any TSA advice?

[DaVinci]

I find my irritation growing daily when the likes of peteadams challenge the rest of us to suggest a better way. Better than unremitting irradiation or arguably illegal sexual fondling? Doing absolutely nothing would be better, in my opinion. If in fact, the next inexorable step the terrorists will take is the "cavity bomb" then we will either submit to the TSAs ultimate defense against that and lose all dignity and freedom, or take our bloody chances, for God's sake! And in the interim, if our final recourse is a choice between a colonoscopy at the airport, or a scaled back, rational approach to security, with an appropriately scaled back expectation (something less than Cheney's 1% Doctrine)... then why not jump ahead a few squares on this cosmic Game of Life and adopt the rational, scaled back approach now? Okay, your son is a pilot... well, in response to those who glibly sneer that if I don't like the new rules, I should take the train (as if terrorists are clever enough to come up with underwear bombs but too dumb to consider bombing a train)... I would counter that if your son wants absolute security from harm in his workplace, he should consider a career as an accountant rather than fly planes.
