The TSA confiscated my wife's solid deodorant crystal, which can in no way, shape, or form be construed as a liquid or even a gel. They then denied her claim for reimbursement, stating that the loss has to be the fault of an error on the TSA's part.

I've traveled with the same without problem many times, and through the same airports, so it's clear that the TSA is as consistently inconsistent as usual.
