A funny note on airline security

Almost 150 years. ago, President Lincoln found it
necessary to hire a private investigator - Mr. Alan
Pinkerton. He was actually the beginning of the
Secret Service.
Since that time federal police authority has grown to
a large number of lettered agencies - FBI, CIA, INS,
IRS, DEA, BATF, SS, ATF, etc...
Now comes the "Federal Air Transportation Airport
Security Service"
Can't you see it now, the new service in thier black
outfits with their initials in large white letters
across their backs?
F.A.T.A.S.S
The skies will be safe once again!
