[PLUG] Airport Question

Fairly easy.

When you get to security have your ticket in hand. When you get to the scanner 
they will want the laptop out of the bag an into their plastic container.  It 
has to be on the bottom, with nothing on top.  Place your keys, cell, coins 
and anything else metal in one of the small bowls they have and place it on 
the side (sorta on top) of the laptop in the tub.

If you can avoid all metal on your person, and get through the walkthrough 
scanner, you sail right through security.  If you don't it will take 5 more 
minutes.

I have to say last week was the first time that I traveled with the new TSC 
and it was smooth, professional, and they were nice.  They still had the same 
requirements for security but no waiting and no attitudes.
