  • RT @N965VJ: RT @elliottdotorg: GOOD NEWS! DHS has withdrawn its subpoena @TSABlogTeam #tsafail // hopefully @flyingwithfish too?! #
  • RT @yaksierra: You know, if #tsafail is going to be going after bloggers I think we all need to Tweet when we see TSA negligence @ airports. #
  • OK, I'll join the fun: #10yearsago I was running my own web development company – oh, the insanity, the lessons learned :) #

  • If these new "security measures" stay in effect, will it further erode interest in going to the USA? Maybe I should sail to LA 4 Oshkosh? :) #
  • Of course they are! :( RT @RunwayGirl: Is TSA knee-jerking w/ new directive? http://bit.ly/825uq7 #
  • Total agreement RT @jjflys: The TSA needs a lesson in root cause analysis, FMEA and how not to overreact to special cause variation #
