From Clark Howard: http://clarkhoward.com/topics/newslette ... .html#scan Over the next few weeks, those body scanning devices are to be installed in 38 airport locations. The Whole Body Imager is currently in use among random passengers in Albuquerque, Baltimore, Denver, Los Angeles, New York's JFK and Washington Reagan National. Later this month machines will be installed in Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas and Miami. These scanners that bounce millimeter waves while a passengers stands in a 9-ft. tall glass portal could replace metal detectors at security checkpoints. TSA agents view the images from a nearby closed room. The images are said to be so detailed that a person's gender is shown and even sweat can show up on images. Faces on images are blurred for privacy and agents delete images once viewed. Scanners cannot see through plastic or rubber materials. The entire process to produce an image takes about 30 seconds. Passengers declining to go through a scanner will face a personal TSA pat-down. Care to see a sample image? Click here. http://www.crunchgear.com/2008/06/06/bo ... orts-soon/ |

Yeah....I saw an article in USA TODAY last week about these body scanners. I may get to experience one at BWI about 3 weeks from now. I personally don't have a probelm with it.....If someone wants to see my privates with one of these machines, all I can say is.."knock yourself out."  I hope it's a good looking chica doing the review.

I don't think they should replace metal detectors. How can they really be sure what they're seeing in the image? I think they need to do both. |

I have personally seen this technology three years ago when in advanced R&D..... Very good images. My only problem is that is famale screeners see my Johnson, they will chat me up afterward and I may miss my flight
