Pete, re<<<Until those ailing airlines and airports make credible improvements in security, I plan to drive. For me, that means xray-sniff-search-whatever baggage for ALL flights, >>>

Frankly I felt safer when I flew two weeks after 9/11 then I do now about flying. Since I mainly fly American it also gives me zero additional secure feeling if this last one wasn't a terrorist attack attack but simply a little problem of the tail falling off after takeoff.

Based on the final airline safety bill likely to come out soon I made a trade and bought some INVN since it looks like the final bill will provide money for total baggage screening by 2003 or so and since INVN is the main FAA certified supplier of explosive detection systems the company is gearing up to run on a 24/7 basis to make more of their CTX series machines to meet demand. As would be expected it moves like one of these speculative "security stocks" and it ain't cheap.
