From a while back, but recent conversations of biometric passports and fancy airport security made me think of this hi-tech system I encountered during a period of heightened alerts.
1. It makes you wonder why the management didn't organise something like this to be manufactured properly, considering how serious a job it was supposed to be doing.
2. It makes you wonder what sort of clever little tinkerer took the initiative to make this in their own time with some left over MDF they had at home.
I'd give them a job over their managers any day.
I'd like also to think that they enjoyed the alliteration in 'baggage gauge'.
