I now will never use one of these machines.

As much as I hate the ACLU on 99% of their politics, they have my full support fighting these things.

Or how about the TSA "safety inspector" that damaged 9 aircraft in ORD by using the TAT probes as a jungle gym?

Actually I think I would prefer to have a female TSA er check my junk if I opt out...you think such a request would be honored?

Everyone print this letter and find an appropriate distribution point at your airport.

This is going to cost billions of dollars to airlines in very short order.

I plan to hand them out to the passengers standing in line(sheeple), waiting to get radiated, along with the info that they can opt out.
