...then the terrorists have won.

I'm with you. On the occasion I am forced to have to fly, I will not step in the porn scanner. I guess I'll just have to submit to the public groping. When I don't absolutely have to fly, I won't.
I think what it will take is for people to stop flying en masse and the wonderful airlines will lobby the lovely folks in Washington to do something about it. Sad, but that's where we are at this point.

So, people travelling in the US tomorrow: are you opting out?
