Why are the TSA people so obsessed with opening bags and boxes? It seems like in the rest of the world, the security people are happy to rely on the x-ray image most of the time, and our bags don't get opened. Every time we fly through the US, those guys always open everything up. I'm not convinced that this means that they are any better at catching any items that shouldn't be there. Soon they will make restrictions that every bag and box must be made of see-through material, but I'm sure they'd still then want to open up half of them and mess with our careful packing jobs. Grrrrrr. Rant over.
