    When they say holographic, they really mean human-shaped projector screen...

    Still, anything to speed up the process through the airport. I used to commute through an airport weekly at one point in my life, and having to wait for all the brain-dead morons that were totally unprepared for their arrival at the security machines used to drive me up the wall (well, to very loud and obvious sarcasm, in fact).

    Yeah, Holly is ok (would have preferred a blond though) but Graham looks a real drip.

    No one listens at airports. You still get people taking shoes off when they get to the scanners because they don't read or listen. So what is this going to do? Nothing. Show piece and a waste of money.

    When I read the title, it made me think of Mass Effect and the Citadel

    For those who have no idea what they are talking about: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/tech...-hologram.html
    Reminds me of Macross Plus, so can't say I don't like [though I am surprised at the popularity]
