Good point. Can you imagine the impact to the poor soul who has the local hot dog stand. I feel sorry for them standing there watching their business shrivel and die.

I would imagine there are some bodies you don't want to see naked, even on a scanner device!

i find the decision to go or not to go to a nudist resort much easier than to work or quit my job at the airport security

anyway, if I were the guard watching the scans 7 days a week, I'd say I could not even swallow dg's chickens...

Yes, but you'll need to leave the big scythe thingy, and your bird has to be in a crate in the cargo hold, all of those bits of metal also need to come off and be placed in a bin as you go through the detector, is that real fur!? That's got to go too then, too much potential for some sort of bio weapon using the natural skin cells. ... ok now you may board the plane

This guy has the right idea:

John Tyner, the 31-year-old software programmer from Oceanside, CA who came to national attention by his now classic defiant statement to TSA screeners at San Diego International Airport, has seen his "15 minutes of fame" extended indefinitely.

Refusing to undergo the indignity of a frisking after he opted out of an Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) full body scanner, Tyner brought attention to himself along with possible criminal prosecution and a whopping $11,000 fine, by telling the TSA airport security agent, "If you touch my junk, I'm going to have you arrested."

The patdowns have been generating a lot of discussion on Twitter and blogs. Haven't heard much about the photos. I wish people would relax. If we can get them to give us a copy, those of us who want naked photos before everything starts to droop will get them for free. And as far as patdowns go, that's the closest thing to foreplay us 41 year-old married women can get. Stop knocking it.

[begin trolling]
I heard the scanners were all on the internet so you could just give them your email address and they'll can CC you on it when they post all the images on line
[end trolling]
