    They can see all of you

    The they? Airport scanners at MIA; The Transportation Security Administration is now using whole body imaging machines, which reveal weapons, explosives, and you...oh my! Yes, all of your parts will be visible to the security person. You never see the operator (he or she is in a covered booth), and the scan allegedly cannot be retained, copied, sent, or printed. Also, the scan is optional; although if you're chosen and you decline the scan, you'll be physically patted down and still go through the metal detectors. Miami one of 21 airports that are pilot-testing the scanners - no plans to put the machines in Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood airport... yet.
    Traveling is soooo much fun!
