One more thing I forgot to mention: As I was leaving the airport the night before I noticed that there were 5-7 guys who were there to do some sort of construction during the night. They were wheeling in large carts with large metal beams, tools and toolboxes. They were going around Security and entering through the area where you and I would exit from. No IDs, no one was checking the materials they were bringing in to the secure area, no one looked in their toolboxes....nothing. I stood and watched for a few minutes to see if anyone would bother to check all of this material, but no one did.
I'm glad they checked that I didn't have more than 3 oz of liquid......
