Left on vacation on Aug 5, flying out of Cincinnati. For the first time flying kilted, I got hasseled by the man (still no strip search, but the guy was definitely being a jerk just because he could - I'll elaborate only if asked and probably only in a PM, but I learned the hard way that books have to go through X-ray not in your pocket). However, I was in a Survival UK. Everything metalic was in one pocket, and dropped on the x-ray machine. Sure enough I dinged. Belt and shoes off, back through and nothing (what saved me from the strip search probably). Ultimate irony is that before the return trip, (in order to remove all liquid like materials), my wife and I went through all the diaper bags and found her Swiss Army knife that she hadn't seen in years. Yes a knife went straight through the x-ray and no one noticed.

Anyway return trip on the 15th (post new terrorist stupidness). Flying out of Scranton PA, same UK survival, just took off shoes and belt, walked straight through. BTW they confiscated my youngest's water filled teething ring, but didn't even check his bottle of milk.
