Full Body Scanners emit 10 Times the Expected Radiation.

Also says that he's more concerned about how he's more worried about the machines malfunctioning....but



Didn't exactly read the whole article, but I'm pretty sure 1 in 30 million is quite the same chance as getting killed by a terrorist.

That would be the chance of dying from entering the machine once. Now factor that for every weekday that a TSA worker would be exposed.
Simple math shows that you exponentially increase your chances every time you walk through those machines, and I believe you used the number for when the machines are working at normal capacity. Its actually working at 10 times the normal capacity.
