Default Still, we're gonna be a little bit safer...

Another air transportation goodie from the “American Recovery And Reinvestment Act of 2009” ("Stimulus Bill"):

To the TSA---
$1,000,000,000 for procurement and installation of checked baggage explosives detection systems and check-point explosives detection equipment

We can only hope that the people who search you at the airport will NOT be involved in the purchasing or installation of this equipment!
