&#62; a) It's not going to kill you.<p>No, probably not. And yet, from the response of UCSF PhDs, it sounds like there needs to be more research into what the effects will be. Let's get that done before we foist it on the flying public (particularly kids, pregnant women, cancer survivors, etc.).<p>&#62; b) Naked photos!<p>We've all seen this one by now: <a href="http://bit.ly/9AbQ82" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/9AbQ82</a>. The difference between the two is a software setting--but the resolution/quality of the image isn't really the point:<p>&#62; c and d) Suck it up, you chose to fly.<p>I choose to drive, but the policeman who pulls me over for speeding does not have the right to pat me down unless he can prove he had cause. The Constitution protects me from that. I'm not sure why it doesn't protect me from the TSA.
