I am all for security but the idea of a computerized strip search is somehow still very creepy.PHOENIX - Most passengers asked to submit to a full-body X-ray at Security Checkpoint B didn't bat an eyelash. Nine in 10 gamely stepped up to a scanner about the size of a vending machine, placed their feet on the red footprints painted on the carpet, and raised their arms - all in the name of airport security.
The aim of the new technology unveiled Friday at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport: to allow officials to detect weapons - such as plastic explosives strapped to the body - that metal detectors and other security measures might miss.
Guess I won't be traveling through Phoenix anytime soon.
