Produced under the supervision of the US Surgeon General, this short film shows how to check the fit of shoes using the in-store x-ray machines which were common at the time. Indeed these machines, although declining in use in the 50s, were still found in shoe stores as late as 1981. And here is the message for the TSA workers. The United States Government insisted these machines were safe to use, right up to the time when shoe salesmen started dying from cancer caused by these devices. The US Government excused its error (and all those dead workers) by saying that the harmful nature of X-rays had not been fully understood at the time. This is important for the TSA workers to understand because they are in the same position as those shoe store salespeople. The US Government is telling you that those terahertz wave scanners are perfectly safe. But terahertz technology is just as new and unknown right now as X-rays were to those shoe stores. Already there is a growing body of evidence that these ultra small radio waves are triggering chemical changes in the skin, including damage to DNA. That you feel nothing at all from the radiation is of small consolation; those already-dead-while-walking shoe salesmen never felt anything either as they were zapped hour after hour, day after day, week after week, just as you feel nothing when you are zapped hour after hour, day after day, week after week.
