Security glitch on computer - Atlanta shut for 2 hours
Various reports on line of chaos as a security test casued a full scale alert.
From : http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/04/20/atl...ort/index.html
"While screening carry-on luggage, a TSA employee identified the image of a suspicious device but did not realize it was part of routine testing for security screeners because the software failed to indicate such a test was under way, Hawley said."
The CNN video report says over 20% of US PAX were impacted by the knock on effects of the closure.
Interesting discussion on this at Slashdot: http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/04/21/1334233
If this is a duplicated thread, excuse me, I searched and was surprised not to find anything so posted.
