Yep. About as annoying as having ones CLOTHING set it off. I went to the
airport and through security 6 times in a 30-day period, and the buttons
on my overalls (which were the only things that really fit me at the time)
set off one of the metal detectors on a regular basis. (I went through at
least 2 different ones, and at least one of them went off at those
buttons, and at least one of them didn't.)
