"I am no expert here so I don't want to be commenting on this  
publicly, but what is the big deal here?  The major security problem  
relates to keeping baddies and their weapons off the planes.

The authorities have decided to AUGMENT that crucial protection by  
limiting the folks who can get access to the boarding areas of the  
airport to those who are actually flying (unless of course you are an  
adult m,eeting a minor child, or an employee of a restaurant or store  
in there, etc).  So, everybody goes through the screening to make  
sure they are not carrying stuff into the boarding areas that could  
cause a problem when if those materials get onto planes, and the  
showing here is not that THAT screening is ineffective, but only that  
there is a way around the means of limiting WHO can come into the  
boarding areas.  But that is the lesser of the problems, no?"
