Having said that I don't put my solid deoderant in the bag and they never make mention of it.
At IAD on Saturday, they re-ran my baggie, which had a whopping total of a 0l.5 fl oz container of Afrin in it due to a cold. I couldn't believe they actually took the baggie out of the bin and re-ran it through the x-ray!

That said, I don't put my solid crystal deodorant in the baggie, either, since it's not a liquid or gel, and have had only one TSO comment on it (at BWI). My wife had hers confiscated at a IAD, though.
