Anyway, I'm sorry for the ridiculous things you've had to endure.
Mine are 8 and 4, and their juice was confiscated (kindly, but taken
nonetheless) in late August in ELP, ORD, and BOS. In ORD they also took away
playdough in a sealed little container, but maybe that is more understandable.

Thanks very much for looking into it, though, and for your kind words. I really
hope this thing gets removed or at least reduced very soon....
