riddler 0 #1 August 3, 2004 I have a cousin that's been working for TSA for about a year now. He says that morale there is low, but what else would we expect? He does say that there's a chance that the TSA won't get a renewal at the end of the year. I think if that were to happen, it means that airports will begin taking over their own security details, as long as they abide by federal guidelines. It would be interesting to see how airports change screening processes without having TSA there. Also, the rumor is that penalties for attempting to carry on prohibited items will increase soon. It's "expected" that people know they cannot carry on scissors, large knives, etc. The first penalty is rumored to be an automatic $250 fine and getting put on a list. The fines go up from there, with possible jail time for repeat offenders. All of the above are completely unsubstantiated rumors.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
