How lightly clad?
A propos of Norm's radical proposal:
1) You have to have the money to buy/hire/send your things. (But then in the long run "you" pay for all that security too.)
2) All this luggage being sent forward - how's it getting there? Wouldn't it still need to be checked for bombs? (Admittedly luggage planes would presumably have a lot less people on them.)
3) Just how lightly clad? And does it apply to air-hostesses (or stewards, depending on your tastes)?
And while we're on this sort of thing: I can't remember who I read some years ago suggesting this, but wouldn't it be a good idea to invent some kind of inbuilt mechanism in cars that disabled the engine unless a breathalyser had been passed? And then make it legally mandatory?
Also, why is it legal to build cars that go faster than the maximum speed limit?
