[Blindtlk] Thought you all might find this interesting-AirTran fined $500K for disability violations

[Mark J. Cadigan]

Isn't it sad that we live in a world where such strict security is a 
necessity? I wish there was a way to get threw those security lanes faster. 
It seems as if they pick people to randomly be difficult to. I have had 
completely random things confiscated. I had a tangerine in my backpack and 
the lady there dumped the entire backpack all over the place picked the 
offensive tangerine confiscated it, then yelled at me that it took to long 
for me to find all the stuff she scattered every ware. I think some people 
could be more patient.
