6. I know some reporter from |
|
CNN did as he breathlessly reported from some airport somewhere. He specifically said, in response to the anchor's (don't recall which one) question regarding baby formula, that to prove that it is actually baby formula and not a dangerous chemical, the person carrying it would have to ingest some of it for the screener. Stupid shit.

8. The Brits WERE making people do that. So I've heard. |

I just can't claim that the US did too based on what I've heard online.

4. Nothing is different. Just don't bring drinks. |
|
My wife just flew from NY and business as usual. The media panic is just propaganda.

5. Except that people have to check some luggage, correct? |
|
I was hoping I could just lug a duffle bag onto the plane, but it looks as if that's not possible.
