No actual threat happening any longer once identified and those with malicious thoughts move onto the next thing.

To add: CBS is now running this: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-elect...bly-expanding/

I'll hedge the bets that a convenient service to 100% screen a PED will come about and someone in the WH will have a buddy who makes bank of that service at airports.
Huh? That CBS article makes no sense. Why would they ban laptops on flights from the US?
