Hi, mella 1! Glad to see you made it back unmolested and without becoming a human guinea pig in a massive backscatter radiation experiment on cancer rates.
What is the largest dimension of sign which is legal along a roadside in Hawaii, does anyone know offhand? This effort at The Point http://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/campaign-0-1514 is promoting an approach which could add to pressure for reform: "Imagine hard-hitting, anti-scanner, anti-groping 60 foot billboards at major airports. Imagine airline executives and TSA employees seeing public outrage everyday on their way to work. Imagine the media response to a highly visible, bold campaign to educate travelers about TSA abuse."
I'd like to see such a billboard outside of every major airport until the TSA is abolished and replaced by a more appropriate, cost-efficient, and effective approach to performing actual security instead of expensive, inappropriate, and hazardous security theater.
BTW, folks in Puna might want to remember this The Point online fundraiser approach for diverse applications locally. An account can be established for any cause, such as sending a school team to a tournament. I really like the features via which no charges are made until the goal is reached (so, if a fundraiser falls short then potential donors are charged nothing) and which allows donors to remain anonymous. Given the documentation of TSA deliberately targeting people --such as reporters-- for harassment if they are critical of the TSA, the anonymous donor option could be useful to protect one from being placed on a list for reprisals. Here is an example of this Orwellian TSA police state behavior:
