>It's all getting a little crazy in the airplane business. [Sarcasm]Fly naked, it's safest for everyone. You can't trust anyone to carry anything on a plane anymore.
Heh, there was a satirical (I hope it was satire, but by this point who knows anymore) piece on my local paper about the plans for a skin tight passenger unitards for flying. Baggages will be flown in separate aircrafts piloted by a minimal crew.
But yes, I dropped off a friend on the airport about 2 weeks before this latest flying liquid ban happened, and I thought it couldn't get anymore sillier. Silly me. Oh well, maybe now the market will be more open to alternatives like good ole zeppelins and unsinkable ocean liners. Though I heard even those have their own problems.
I think we should seriously consider the route of intercontinental human cannonballs. It's more feasible than startrek style transporters, and a great way of making the skies friendly once more.
