I think it highlights some of the issues, but without the histrionics of a lot of what i'm seeing on FB. I thought it was nice that it pays heed to the people who are needing to do the searches - it really bothers me that people who are angry with the procedure feel like it becomes their right to transgress against other folks in return. And, finally, i thought the advice seemed sound.

I have been thinking about reasonable responses. I think the large problem is that air travel has a monopoly on our travel. I think exercising options and pursuing options for travel is the only real way to address the myriad of problems we see when flying. High-speed rail, driving, and even reducing travel must be considered and pursued to what degree they can be.

I've been trying to dream up a sort of protest-flight-suit - something that is basically a single layer of covering that can be worn through the airports. I'd like to make it see-through for effect, but, i don't want to offend all those sensitive souls out there. So, maybe protest writing? I dunno, something that makes a statement without being outright offensive.
