Billy Hayes wouldn't.

I can't remember how he got caught? I know he was boarding a plane but forget the situation. Did a dog get him or was it something else? I enjoyed hash back in the day.

From what I recall Billy was acting pretty nervous. He almost made it through when an official decided to search him.

Ahh yes, nothing like a Turkish prison..

Something that bothers me even more than being biometrically scanned is being forced to change money at border crossings and airports. I went into Nicaragua for the first time many years ago and ended up with a knapsack full of worthless Cordobas nobody outside the Sandinista wanted.
