  • The first time I was ever put through a metal scanner and a pat down was when landing at an airport in the UK. Mind you, this was before 2001, but any traveler complaining was given dirty looks or pulled aside, one of my co-travelers was pulled aside and his luggage was searched and he was more thoroughly searched and questioned for a while (can’t remember exactly how long, but it delayed us for a conference and we were too late for our hotel check in, so we had out of pocket expenses).

    I guess borders are a bottle neck…
