I used to fly every other week...

Between 1990 and 1999, I was doing a lot of Marketing work for two software companies and I fly TOO MUCH. In 1990, I really enjoyed flying. I've seen uncountable breaches of security including people walking through security checkpoints, getting beeped, and not getting stopped because there was too much confusion. By 1998, I had become a terribly nervous flyer and I knew I needed to change my job. In early 1999, I started doing more technical and less marketing work which has cut my flights from 100+ a year, at my peak, down to less than 10. The other benefit is I get to spend more time in my own bed with my wife! ;-)
I would welcome much more stringent security.
