If you think you can convince a bunch of New Yorkers to go through such
a thing one at a time, you've never seen a typical subway turnstile on a
weekday.
OK. Put in 1000 or so.

As long as we're dreaming, how 'bout something that can *disarm* hidden
bombs? Throw in a detection mechanism while you're at it, so we can
catch them too.
No. That would dull the fun. Plus, we would have to bear the expense
of trying them in court and maintaining them in prison. Let them die by
their own hand!
