We are at the gate. Although a long drive, we arrived without pause. A longer than usual flight. Punctuated now by a long walk to customs, baggage claime (where I packed all my liquids, gells and oinkments) and then a drive home.
I was in Chicago to attend a meeting. The company we were meeting with was located in a highly secure building that required xraying of briefcases and walking through a metal detector.
Rather than making me feel more secure the whole thing did quite the opposite. Why would what appareared to be a normal office building need such security. The answers I got from the people I was meeting were less than satisfactory (the best explanation was there was a law firm in the building).
