 I don't, but would like to know. 
But the thing that really gets me is that neither the scanner nor the pat downs can detect things hidden in body cavities.  Given that, what's the point?  It's essential to catch the terrorist who is committed enough to strap a bomb to his scrotum but not committed enough to, um, insert a bomb elsewhere?
