Curiously, there is nothing on the TSA website about any new security measures. The only information is coming from airlines. (But the TSA website has a very nice header asking us to learn more about apostrophes, hyphens and long names, which leads to a text which says nothing about apostrophes, hyphens OR long names. Nice work.)

As far as I can tell, the ban on peeing for the last hour is only for international inbound flights (exactly those long ones in which you need to get up to pee). Terrorists that require leaving their seats (not the current guy), please remember to do your stuff at 90 min before landing, or on domestic flights.

As far as I can tell, the ban on getting to your carry on is also only for international flights. Very effective. And I really want to see the airplane staff keeping all passengers from reaching for their sweaters under the seat, or entertaining them in a book, inflight entertainment and ipod-free environment.

Also, what is the purpose of the one carry on limit? The guy strapped stuff to his legs and now we get one carry on? Why limit the number, and not the size?? Also, apparently, only valid for oversees flights, why??

Why am I asking??
