Unfortunately, it is a cleaning service run by a government agency, which
means:

1) They really don't do a very good job
2) The equipment went to the lowest bidder, hench the small cloth on the end
of a used chopstick.

On my recent cross Canada trip I had my camera gear swabbed by the airport
security people after it had be through the x-ray machine. Unlike on
previous trips the people showed no interest in having me remove the lens or
in looking through the view finder. All they wanted to do was dab the camera
case and camera body itself with a small piece of white cloth attached to
the end of 12" wooden rod.

Any ideas whether this is a cleaning service for dirty cameras or whether
something more sinister is being probed for by the guardians of our airline
security system?
