Hey everyone,

I'm working on a research paper regarding Airport Security and its impact on airports. I hoping to pick some of yalls brains and see if anyone has any unique personal experiences while going through airport security. For example...

Back in 96 my mom and dad took me and my siblings to Disney World in Florida. While boarding the plane in Orlando for the trip home, we went through a metal detector and they sent my carry on through the x-ray machine. Well the airport security guard, this is of course all prior to the TSA, pulled me aside and said they found something suspicious in my bag and it appeared to be three "pineapple grenades". They showed me on the monitor what they saw and it donned on me that what they were seeing was three souvenir shot glasses wrapped in newspaper.

Anyway, that's the kind of stuff I'm interested in if anyone is willing to share. Also if anyone knows of any good articles, like the one about the backscatter technology that was recently posted, would be much appreciated as well.

Thanks!
