Airport screenings

This has got to be one of the greatest ideas I've heard......... and I'm sure
that someone could figure out how to do it!
Here's a simple solution to the controversy over full-body scanners at airports.

Develop an enclosed booth that passengers step into but, instead of X-raying
them, when the door closes, it will detonate any explosive device
they have hidden on or in their body. The explosion will be contained within the
sealed booth. This would be a win-win for everyone!

There would be no concern about racial profiling. The booth would eliminate
long,
expensive trials.

You're in the airport and you hear a muffled explosion, followed by an
announcement
over the PA system, "Attention standby passengers, we now have a seat available
on flight
number..."

What's not to like?

I fly for a living and let me say going through the security screening everyday DRIVES ME NUTS. The que around the security screening drives me nuts, the angry passengers who forgot to take there laptops out drive me nuts, lets just say the whole thing drives me nuts!! AND if I'm going away for a few days, they take my nail clippers off me!

This idea? I LOVE IT!
Fantastic! Think about the que that WON'T exist or the angry people waiting. It's a Win win for everyone!

Lowell, they have self cleaning toilets now so surely they can do this for the booth as well?

Great idea!

Leeroy has the right idea flush away the crap and whatever is left of it had brought into the booth with it.

This all reminds me of the monty python sketch where John Cleese designs the SLAUGHTER BUILDING, when the really wanted a Apartment builing..

"The long luxuries hallways lined with beautiful paintings, and deluxe carpeting, lead down to the whirling stainless steel knife blades"
