... (and I've suggested this before), some day soon, that the TSA will declare minimum physical fitness, medical, and age requirements in order to be able to exercise the privilege of flying on a commercial aircraft. If the TSA had only had a rule prohibiting on people confined to wheelchairs from flying, none of this ever would have happened.

1. Insulin pump or colostomy bag? Sorry.
2. Artificial joint or limb(s)? Sorry.
3. Legally blind or deaf? Sorry.
4. Breast or other prosthesis? Sorry.
5. Lactating mother? Sorry.
6. Mental age below a certain level? Sorry.
7. Babe in arms? Sorry.

All of these prohibitions are being instituted out of an abundance of caution, you understand.

Before you chuckle or start throwing around tinfoil hat comments, how many of us thought a year ago that we would be subject to ionizing radiation and/or frisking of genitals as a condition of flying?
