What would be more intimidating, a refrigerator-sized machine or a pack of hungry looking German Shepherds sniffing at your pant leg?

The Crushinator, anyone?

it's just a matter of time before a backscatter operator develops an unhealthy crush on a frequent flyer and starts throwing erroneous results just to get the poor traveller to stay longer.

FTFY..

Comment Fench language impressions (Score 1) 674

It's funny that Paris has this reputation of being snooty about language, but it's not really justified.

I think Paris just gets it because it's the figurehead of France. All the French laws to keep foreign words out of their language come off as pretty darn snooty.

Also French attitudes expressed about Canadian French also come off as snooty.

Those attitudes may be softening with age, but in the late 90's when that sentiment was at it's peak, they left quite the impression.
