Re: I met Dave Gerecke!

I'll remember the clipboard for future reference.  ;-)  I think a lot of
security personnel (and a lot of other people) are somewhat paranoid
since the 9-11 attacks.  I know people who still won't fly, even though
flying is a lot safer now than it ever was before.  I say that not
because of the security checks, which I don't really think do that much
good, but because of the attitudes of passengers and flight personnel.
I don't believe it would be possible to hijack a plane now.  There have
been a few incidents in the last two years that prove people know what
to do if someone tries something they shouldn't.  I don't mind some
security precautions, and I know rules are rules.  However, we weren't
hurting anything, and that picture didn't show anything important.  Oh
well.  At least we did manage to meet.
