LOL!  My wife who has traveled for business the last few  years more
then I 
have was upset that in LAX for departure to Phoenix I forgot  to remove
my 
shoes and was waved through the metal detectors and she had removed  her
shoes in 
anticipation...  The hallways were cold at 0600 hours...but  not as cold
as 
Saint Louis earlier in the week (18 degrees (F) and  snowing).
 
I can see the TSA bureaucratic mind faltering on the fingerprint  thing.
 Did 
reason take over and they take what they could get or did they	try for
a 
'complete set' anyway?	So now we both have prints on file (mine  for
work) with 
the US Government!
 
Los Angeles at it's finest, my LDS cousin leaves 15 minutes after  her
fellow 
LDS neighbor to go to the downtown 'temple' via surface roads 
(neighbors 
uses freeways) and arrives 15 minutes before them.  Go	figure...
 
The slow boat would have been searched by the Coast Guard (but it  might
have 
been faster come to think of it).  I suspect 4 hours is not even  close
to a 
record unfortunately...
