See how well you would do. Go to http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3827789/ and click the second interactive along the right side of the article.

Here's my score:
Bags screened - 23
Bags with threats - 4
Threats correctly identified - 100%
False Alarms - 3
Grade - A

That is a VERY hard job, one that I am glad I don't have! On the first two tries, I was false alarming like crazy, making people in line quite irritated. On the third try, I might of caused another terrorist attack because I let one bag through with a dangerous item!

Cool site, Duck.

I took my time and scanned only 7 bags. I got a 100%, finding one gun and no false alarms.

It wouldn't even come up for me. The screen stayed blank. Guess they know that nobody would be going anywhere.

Stephanie and anyone else having difficulties with opening the interactive, when you clicked the interactive link on the MSNBC webpage, did it ask for you to download a plug-in?

When I clicked it the first time, it asked me a Yes-No question of whehter I wanted to install the required plug-in.

The first time it just worked for me. Probably because the kids have all those media things already installed from all their on-line games. The second time, however it locked up and I had to ctrl-alt-del to get out.

Yeah, it appears to require Macromedia Flash Player.
