Screening Overhaul in the Works?

Apparently, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff thinks security measures at airports are a bit much. He has told Transportation Security Administration to take 30 to 45 days to "take a look at the whole system of screening at the airport," USA Today reported yesterday. The idea is to "maybe make a couple of significant changes to remove some of the burden" on travelers, Chertoff said.

It seems the agency has already started by trying to get companies to design a better laptop case so that travelers don't have to take their computers out of their bags to go through checkpoints.
