Now, of course I have (once again) noted the attempt to overly sensationalize an informational post. I provided the link to give those who might be interested, a bit more information than they might have.
Okay, so you have a 3.4 oz restriction by volume. Toothpaste is sold by weight. Given that toothpaste has a higher density than does water (1 cc of water is 1 gram) how does that correlate to the 3.4 oz by volume? Bad science there Ron since with the exception of water and perhaps other mixtures, 1cm volume doesn't equal 1 gram weight.
