Awkward Squeeze Now Gentle Breeze As 'Puffer' Machines Replace Airport Frisking

Security checks where travelers are patted down will end for many people at 10 more airports by summer's end, the government said Wednesday.
Passengers will see "puffer" machines that can detect explosives residue when people walk through. Airport screeners will not have to pat down people to make sure they are not carrying hidden bombs. But the new equipment may not be installed at every checkpoint at those airports.
