This was surely mentioned already - but obviously the "powers that be" already knew all of this stuff (cell phones, hair gel, water) could be "possibly" dangerous but suddenly because something was about to happen they decide to ban everything. Where does it stop? They've been sitting around for 5 years and didn't know this? I think NOT.

I know everyone is being "understanding" right now, for the most part. But in a week or so when all of these bans are still in effect (if not worse) then how happy will business travelers be? And how about the stores inside and outside security that aren't making any money? Will they shut down?

I just find our various governments EXTREMELY INEPT and hope to God they do not get away with this BS!!!
