It's high time. I came back from (eastern) Europe last month through the Atlanta airport. To get from international customs/immigration into the domestic terminal, you have to go through screening.

There was utter confusion in the screening process with six or eight "screeners" hanging about, shucking and jiving, while three were doing all the work.

Went through small airport several months ago about 9 am....20-25 screeners standing around along with local police. They all stood there and watched me and my purse go through the machines. No one else was in front of me or behind me.

Orlando has the same system, where you cannot even leave customs to go to the city without going BACK through security to take a train to baggage claim...I waited 45 minutes to get through a pointless process.

Lesson - avoid terminating international arrivals in ATL and MCO. The TSA albatross will only gain weight.
