.....as seen by the person behind the machines. No kidding. This was some kind of a training demo using various things that should be watched for.



How do you feel, happy vacationer? LoL!

Well that tears it. If there's even the slightest chance that an image of my naked self will wind up on a chatboard, I'm never flying again...

I didn't say I wouldn't appear naked for you, it's all these others, heh...

This is as much as I'll flaunt here:

What a happy looking plsmith

There's too much information in the x-ray. Besides the cocaine, wouldn't a metal detector pick these things up?

That dummy's got no lungs or spine. And is that gun full of *hot* air? Air shows up black on the films.

Bad Tech!

krs ...as seen by the person behind the machines. No kidding.

hehehehe... why do I doubt that. How old is that picture 3 or 4 years old?

We had our own security x-ray station at work before boarding the plane to go home. One day one of the techs turned on the matchine and looked at the memory images and we busted out laughing. One of the guards had laid down on the belt and gone through the machine. Unfortunately the supervisor with us wasn't amused. The guard was given a month vacation without pay. They had no doubt which guard it was because his two hearing aids were easy to see.

You know when you buy a turkey and inside it there's this white package of innerds? That what the x-ray looks like to me.

Do not know what this is but it is not an x-ray. How come the gun and the watch doesn't show up as white? Metal cannot be penetrated so it turns up as white. The watch works should be visable and if the band is metal, it should be white. The denser the part is, the harder to penetrate and demonstrate.Also as stated - how come the spine and long bones are not visable but the gonads which are soft tissue should not even visualize. Former top Reg. Tech.

Hepburn...Actually, Pat used to have very long hair at one time, if I recall...High School pic perhaps?

I guess when I go through those X-rays, the attendants must scratch their head and say: "Hey! That one is missing something.."

uaru authoratatively surmises:

"hehehehe... why do I doubt that. How old is that picture 3 or 4 years old?"

Really uaru, I would have thought that you were savvy enough to go to the source of the picture. Guess not. It is actually new technology, and doesn't require any lying down as you so chortlingly describe. Whether it's actually x-ray technology those guys know; I used the term for universal understanding.

Anyway, go have a look, if the pun is believable:

Actually, rancher, this picture reminds me a an old, old TV show: Fantastic Journey, of something similar: medical team can shrink and traverl inside the body, looking for stuff to repair

heh, now you see why I wouldn't want an x-ray pic of myself to find its way here. You must be especially bored today, Hopeless...

For the curious: the pic I posted was taken last November. Hair is longer now.

Isn't this the url of the picture you posted? http://www.epic.org/privacy/faa/bodysearch.gif?

Isn't this the URL where that image is linked from?
http://www.epic.org/privacy/faa/?

Which airports are using this 'new' technology? Isn't this a 3 or 4 year old picture?

Plsmith, very nice smile. You look like Charlotte Rampling in that picture, and that's a very nice look.

Oh gee, didn't you look for links within links, uaru? The one contains the other. I THOUGHT that you might be able to handle that little exploration. Guess not.

It's become rather quickly quite clear why you are so entirely dependent upon your mainline media--you really do need to be spoonfed, don't you?

I do think that that is a shame because the real value of the net is lost to you. I haven't seen it all, of course, but I've come to believe that the entire body of man's accumulated knowledge is contained within it, and to have all of that at the fingertips is the most marvelous advance for general usage that's been achieved to date. But for you, the whole worth of it is chatboards and emailed baby pictures, huh?

krs you really do need to be spoonfed, don't you?

I think the real problem is I refuse to let you spoon feed me.

If I ever try to do that, you'll be the first to succumb to it.

By the way, that Pat picture isn't Pat, nor would Pat have much to do with Daddy Bush, as does Charlotte Rampling. A republican heroine....not plsmith.
