The security is so focused on what a terrorist should look like that they let an obvious one through. Then agian I may have no clue what I talking about.

In fact, I refused to believe that he really came through the scene–until I watched it the second time. Of my team at work, 2/3 also missed him. Those that saw him lost count.

Research indicates that if you are preoccupied with a task you miss obvious details because you simply are not looking for them. It’s the way our brains are wired. If you don’t like it, take it up with the designer.

Unfortunately, there is a gorilla in your midsection….
