Verdict: films safe for airport security X-rays?

[P3D Peter Davis <pfd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, it occurred to me that this is probably the best place to check this ...

What is the truth about putting exposed/unexposed film and/or loaded cameras
through the X-ray machines at airport security checkpoints?  I'm flying to
Florida in a couple of days, and I'd like to know if it's safe for my
Kodachrome 64 and for my wife's Kodak Gold 200 films.  Any advice?

By the way, I'd appreciate an answer by private e-mail, as I've already had
to put this list in POSTPONE mode for my incoming mail.

Thanks very much,
