off topic... It's pretty clear that the Conservatives in the House have a pretty compelling case for keeping airport security in the private sector. latimes.com AIR SECURITY United Faces Fines, Sanctions From O'Hare Security Breach By ERIC SLATER and RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR, TIMES STAFF WRITERS CHICAGO -- Having pledged a serious crackdown on airport security lapses, federal officials Monday called for sanctions and fines against United Airlines after guards failed to discover seven knives and a stun gun in carry-on luggage that passed through metal detectors at O'Hare International Airport. Visibly irritated, Transportation Secretary Norman Y. Mineta promised Monday to impose a severe penalty on the already troubled airline after the incident Saturday night in which security workers failed to detain a passenger when two folding knives were found in his pants pocket, and also didn't see seven more knives and a stun gun in his carry-on luggage as it passed through metal detectors...... How servere might the fine be...$50 mabye? We'll have to give United Airlines a big tax credit to cover that one. jttmab
