Just got this on the Rollei list - While I assume that some LUGers also got
it, I also assume that many have not. I can't tell you whether it's an urban
legend, or real...

Passing this along from Kodak:

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY

Please be aware that high-security x-ray machines (such as the CTX 5500)
will fog and ruin all unprocessed film of any speed whether exposed or not.

Travelers should politely insist on hand-inspection of their film.  Carry
a changing bag for use by the inspector and demonstrate how it is used
with a can of fogged film as an example.  However, there is no guarantee
that your request will be granted by local inspectors who may insist on
x-ray inspection.  Hand inspection may not be permitted in some airports
outside the U.S.
