And, Mr H, as the apparent curator of all things related to VA policies, T&C, procedures, et al, I'm still waiting on your disclosure of the "hot beverages" while boarding policy. If it's there, I'm sure you'll find it, and I can't wait to see it.
Until then, I'm off to find a Starbucks around here, hopefully the local PD won't treat it with as much fear and loathing as the VA people do.
