I'll betcha' that 12 oz of shampoo will no longer blow up an airplane when the head lice pandemic hits...
I think for TSA all liquids could potentially be explosives, but since most sanitizers have "pumps"--that makes them OK. From blurbs on TV toilet paper and liquid sanitzers are in super short supply in many stores that TSA is allowing them may be a moot point.
