"Samantha Johnston, 44, a Portland, Ore., grad student and moderator on the popular FlyerTalk .com message board, says the latest — and constantly shifting — carry-on rules have sparked the biggest response since the chaotic aftermath of Sept. 11, 2001. Johnston is the type of traveler who will fly to Singapore for the weekend or to Munich for breakfast with a friend. (She has done both, with a single carry-on.)

No more.

"I've put up with public inspection for the underwire in my bra, and when I protested, being told to wear a bulky sweater and go braless in the future. I've been told I can't carry on a bottle of wine as a gift at one airport, only to find it's no problem at another. I've been civil with the multiple checks of my boarding pass not more than a few feet apart. I figured this all couldn't possibly last and flying would eventually return to normal," she says.

But now, with strict carry-on regulations that currently ban everything from hair spray to yogurt, "I've reached my tipping point. I've decided not to fly until the latest Draconian carry-on prohibitions are significantly rolled back. Security has finally reached the nether regions on the idiocy graph."

Bravo, Samantha! I'm also not flying until this latest round of filthy harassment stops.
