Well ... don't be too sure about that ... I could tell you a couple of security related stories that would make your round-eyes get rounder. :sleep_125.... come to Japan and see how security is supposed to be done. Everybody dressed sharp, not grossly over weight in a stained uniform, they are professional and fast, but still give the impression of being thorough....erg.../end rant

Jap-anese airport security is still a "dumping ground" for airport employees in a general sense ... much like their Gaijin counterparts. We don't have a monopoly on bureaucratic stupidity ... it's just that most of the Jap-anese airport security personnel are not as fat ...
..... but their mindset, culture, and tradition still forces them to defer to the Gaijin Kyaputen when push comes to shove -- and when Captain Aloha lays the hammer down.
Believe it.
Fe-e-e-e-elings .... whoa, whoa, whoa .... feeee-e-e-elings .... whoa, whoa, whoa .... fee-e-e-e-elings, nothing more than feelings ....well,....at least they didn't harass you much.... you're not pissed off.
Now put on the uniform of a 747 Captain and repeat.I had a great experience at the Portland airport last week. .... Not cool. Not fun.
Those idiots never cease to amaze me. ...

Good point. Which is why I eschew all contact w/ government bean-counters-workers whenever possible .......in my experience, I have not found TSA personnel to be any better or worse then the folks at DMV or the Post Office...
BTW you are required to take your shoes off!
Hmmmm ... wonder how El Al "TSA" does it .... THOSE are the guys I want on my team.
It CAN be done -- and done correctly, politely, and professionally. Just not anywhere near U.S. airports .... and not anytime soon. :sleep_125
