No, the response does not direct me where to find the answer. The TSA list of banned items has not been updated on the website.

I would have been happy if
anybody had given me a straight answer -- be it an admiral, a yeoman second class, or an ex-PFC.
All they had to say was:
1. Your Zippo will be allowed.
2. Your Zippo will not be allowed.
3. We have not yet decided.

I thought I remembered you being a former teacher. Is "reading comprehension" no longer part of the curriculum?
Nowhere did I say I carry a Zippo lighter with no lighter fluid. I said that a Zippo does not contain butane. Butane was specifically banned under the new Intelligence Law but lighters which do not use butane were not. The question remains whether or not the TSA will allow such lighters.
