Looking forward to my first TSA search
I had bypass surgery. I have several wires in me that were used to hold my
sternum and other things together. On x ray, they look like squiggly wires and twisted together on the ends. I'm sure I am going to cause quite a stir when they body scan me. It's quite a lot of wire. I also have two silver clips on my vas deferens in my scrotum, and I wonder what they'll say about those. But the wires in my chest could look like some part of a device, or wire that is holding something on to my body. I'll just go through the test like anyone, and won't give them a clue, and see how they treat me. Maybe I'll make the news. Steve Heart surgery pending? Read up and prepare.

Xrays would have to penetrate and the metal detectors, which you will probably go through, will not show these things. I've got the chest wires plus a stainless steel plate with 5 screws on my collarbone and they don't get picked up. |

I'll have to go early...
I'm sure once they get a look at my body, they will want me to go back in so they can have another look. Then another and another. If I'm not there early, this might cause me to miss my flight!

- I called USAIR saying i want to cancel my christmas trip, since conditions of carriage have now changed.I bought my tickets before the new rules were public....... no dice non refundable is non refundable. A lawyer friend told me that contracts are only guidelines suggesting how both parties would like things to be. (-: A judge decides what the contract *really* says. Your state laws could offer you some avenues of recovery. If not, bad publicity is something no airline wants and there are substantive material issues since the conditions of the contract have so vastly changed. I might press a little harder if those tickets were truly going to waste. I might even call one of the organizations coming down against the new procedures and offer to be a test case. The choice between being scoped or groped is like the choice between getting e. coli or salmonella food poisoning. I don't want either. -- Bobby G. |

Don't necessarily stop with the Epsilon Minus on the phone. That's what they WOULD say. Look up US Air on Yahoo Finance, get the name, address, phone and fax of the CEO, and write him/her a polite but firm letter reiterating your point about the conditions of carriage. Send a copy to their Chief Counsel. Couldn't hurt! Strike a blow for freedom g Luck! HB |
