Location: Rarely, if ever, here or there, but always in transition

personal note: ( I'd add my own two cents to this hovering argument, but it's nothing new. These procedures have been building up for the past few years, and the full-body "naked" scanners have been progressively popping up in N. America since late 2004. Nothing new. Oh... well, these "enhanced" screenings, though, where were they six weeks ago when I last traveled back within the states? It's seems to only be coinciding with the holiday rush, if only to a casual observer like myself.)
