I took a trip out of the SFO right after 9/11, and when I asked to have my film handchecked (I have a roll of 800 speed film, that is ALWAYS in the bag so I can say "I have 800 speed film in there" without lying).

They proceeded to give me the "he must be a terrorist" treatment, and they had an armed MP with an M16 standing in front of me, in ready position while they checked my film..

"Why would anybody need this much film??"  He began to question me..

If 10 rolls is a lot of film, they need to see what the National Geographics people run through..

SFO = rude..  I'd be rude too if I had their taxes and living expenses..
