Replacing TSA personnel with "security mannequins" would be just as effective and cheaper. I believe 99.9% of those assigned to checkpoints have no idea why they are removing your shoes, don't know the composition of Richard Rieds shoe bomb, nor understand any concept of why their magging and swipeing would be ineffective against similar TATP/HMTD IEDs.

Remember, Ramsi Yusef's device which killed the Japenese businessman would still get thru todays carry on screening process with no trouble.

Again, - seek the bomber - not the bomb . Its unlikely you'll find a good bomb.
