That NEVER happens...non-passengers are not allowed past security without a boarding pass!
Same with people greeting people RIGHT at the gate as they're deplaning....you have to meet people at the luggage carousel thingy or in the chute where the passengers walk out of...you can't just walk up to the gate and go "hi!"
ROTL about the "made up" Greek letter...maybe Doma is Latin?

Prior to September 11, Detroit Metro Airport allowed people without tickets all the way to the gate. Sometimes they didn't let people past the metal detectors, which was a hassle because when you have family coming in from Italy on a huge Alitalia 7-something-7, there are like hundreds of other greeters standing directly outside the detectors. I've heard that now people aren't even allowed IN the airport itself. I know it's a security issue, but if I'm goin on a big trip, or a trip at all, I want my parents there at the gate when I leave.
Other than that and back on topic, I hate when you're watching a movie and you just know what is going to happen. I was watching crank yankers last nite, and they showed a "sorority house", and then a dorm-like building behind it with a "girl" who got crabs from gettin a bikini wax. The "girl", was obviously a sorority girl. Why else would they show the house with letters on it? I knew it was gona have to be something having to do with one of the stereotypes.
