How can I reduce my wait time at airport security points?

On average nation wide wait times at our security check points are less than ten minutes. So, it's not a lot of time to wait. Secondly, passengers can, if they have flexibility in their schedules, travel during non-peak travel times. However, if you do have a line in security, how do you make it quicker for yourself? Very simple processes, take your coat off, take your cell phone off your belt. Take your laptop out of your bag. Take the change out of your pockets. Take your shoes off. Those very basic steps could save you a minute, two minutes, three minutes. When you consider you're traveling with two million other people that day, if you all save each other two minutes, really, the time saved is humongous.
