Continuing on the subject of x-rays at airports, there is an interesting, if
slightly unrelated, article in today's NY Times on this subject. Its URL is:
http://www.nytimes.com/library/review/012499airports-xrays-review.html
You may have to register to get to the web page, but it's free and I've been
reading the NY Times in this manner for about a year and a half now and have
received no uninvited e-mail from them. They seem to be quite honorable.
