Until that time... this is the best they can do, I guess. It's going to make a lot of people uncomfortable, but those folks can always just choose the more traditional pat-down/wanding that we have now. But I hear you. It's not as though I'm excited about this idea. But I do know that I keep reading stories about testers getting through airport security with bombs and things all the time, and that scares the heck out of me.

I want safer airlines, but I also want my privacy. This kind of reminds me of the whole big brother thing with chips being implanted into people for tracking purposes. Great post. Uncomfortable idea.
