The green light was on, but a sad and lonely GE EntryScan machine waited for no passengers at San Francisco International on Monday night. We peeked ahead trying to see if we would be shunted through the machine, but to no avail!

Its presence suggests that despite security concerns raised by the ACLU, among others, body scans or required pat downs are in the future for air travelers.
Given the state of the checkpoint line, we were wishing the EntryScan would be operational. We snapped two more photos before deciding to make ourselves look less suspicious:
