Fantastic story. WP is one of the few papers that is not afraid to take on the government generally and the TSA in particular, unlike the chicken-**** New York Times and USA Today (see other recent threads).

Many good quotes including the following: Metal detectors at security checkpoints cannot sense plastic items that may contain liquids or gels.

As I thought. Anybody else planning to use their pockets to carry-on toothpaste, sanitizers and other items that pose no threat to safety?
