Show your bits, get on the plane

Apart from now having to pay to get your suitcase checked (United, now do you realize why I stopped using you last year), the TSA has decided it's appropriate for some of their staff to pretty much see you naked before you're allowed onto the plane. Are people really so put off by the "pat down" that they'd prefer to have some stranger take a look at them in all of their glory instead? Somehow I don't think so.

My real question is whether the TSA has been conned by the company that used to make the x-ray glasses - is it just a big box with a red feather in the wall? Now that would be funny.
