I don't get all the fuss. I fly often and it takes no more than 20 minutes in SFO to get through, even when there are long lines because they add more agents (thread pool!) - same in Boston, even when there's a major storm and the whole state are trying to leave at the same time, it's still really efficient. I don't really care about taking off my shoes and belt, I certainly don't find it humiliating. It's like when I hear people talk of the humiliation getting a physical. American's are the biggest consumers of porn and at the same time, the biggest prudes about ridiculous stuff. If I had to drop my shorts at the airport I might remember not to wear Spongebob ones to the airport, but short of that, it's hardly a big deal or worth blogging about. I'd rather take my shoes off and have 2+ jet engines than get in an 8-seater commuter plane.
