    Not me. Think about for a second. If you travel allot for work chances are you are going to be an Elite with the airline you fly most often. In that case at most major airports there are Elite or F class lanes you can use to move through screening. The only way I could have seen this succeed is if it was rolled out nation wide, then you I would see the value in it, but not at an airport I can use the Elite lanes. What sucks is the company said they can't provide refunds..they must be flat broke.

    You could hear the screeching sound when they came to a halt. What I heard they just called all their supervisors and told them to go home and don't bother coming back. Equipment was just left.

    We had to go around and check they didn't leave their computers out.

    This was one of those things that I never thought would work. It jsut sounded unnecessary, "solving" a problem that never really existed.

    thought about it for after my eventual departure from the airlines, but was brought to the realization that with a certain green piece of plastic i'll have in a few months my worries will be over and i'll still be able to use employee lanes. =D thanks EMS!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
