Long lines at MIA

I came through Miami International this morning, where security lines were beyond painful. (The queue for Concourse “E’’ stretched almost to “G.’’) TSA staffers checked IDs three times in the same queue … a change from my last run through the airport in September.

Now, I'm for security as much as the next person. But if we're honest, we'd all admit the while TSA's procedures are important, there's a ton of potentially dangerous stuff that goes through unnoticed...and it has nothing to do with checking my ID.

When I return next week, I’ll check with TSA to find out about policy changes. Meanwhile, if you know of any, please post them here.

Better yet, feel free to rant about your own airport hassles.
