http://blog.budgettravel.com/budgettravel/2011/11/are_holiday_sweaters_the_new_t.html Short article but disgusting. As I posted in my comment there, just another blatant TSA power-grab. Go on over. Give 'em (expletive deleted). The site pre-moderates comments but hopefully mine will get through.
Oh, and just for the record, here's the comment I posted (still awaiting moderation as of 10:56AM CST):
the writer of the article does not mention what happened, but it was undoubtedly a full frontal in the area. So ATR is making more fans of the TSA....Those idiots are making our case for us....
My mother-in-law is coming for Christmas through a scanner airport, and she's a holiday-sweater wearin' fool. Will have to warn her of this idiocy.
Well, that's a good point. She is, I think, in spirit, but I suspect she'll go through the scanner. Last time we discussed it we were both at non-scanner airports.
I was wondering if she's sympathetic to the cause in general. Meaning I hope she's not one of those people who ridicules our concerns about our civil liberties and bodies being violated.
At a certain point it gets hard to play by the rules - especially when the rules are secret and they keep changing. P.S. I think your sig file is shiny, but now I'm singing the song. A marathon may even be in order sometime during the long weekend.
