TSA gets a public face with Evolution of Security blog

TSA evolution of security blog
The TSA, that pesky (but very necessary) organization that makes us take off our shoes at the airport, has a new public face in the form of the Evolution of Security blog. By visiting the site and participating in the discussion through comments, the public helps the TSA in improving security measures. It plans to learn from its readers through the blog and will make changes to its policies accordingly.

Though blog-readers have a chance to post questions, it doesn't mean the TSA will give you a direct answer. Instead the TSA "will challenge you with new ideas and involve you in upcoming changes." Though it means we may still have to take off our shoes at security checkpoints, its nice to know that the TSA is doing what it can to make the flying experience better.

The blog, which was just launched yesterday, features a number bloggers whose names range from "Bob" all the way to the very rare "Jim", and though their names sound ordinary, many of these people are anything but average.

She also worked with NASA on an artificial gravity system , which reminds us: we should probably buy one of those when space travel becomes the norm.
