And as far as I've gathered, it's not purely the fact you have liquids, its having large containers which could be added to and used to MIX the ingredients to some liquid explosive. Still, you could bring 100ml of nitroglycerin on a plane. Could cause a bit of a bang. I fly regularly about four times a year on a military flight.

And it's especially silly that the drink you bought at the shop after passing through security should somehow pose a risk. You can almost (almost) see the logic in preventing outside liquids. But I don't think Poland Springs is in on the conspiracy. I'm sorry - but it's stupid. We're trying to convince ourselves we can make things 100% safe and we can't. We don't think rationally. Nobody wants to think statistically, we want to think hysterically. You can imagine how much this makes the terrorists giggle. "OK, now we make them take off their shoes. Then - no more Gatorade. Next, we have someone try to smuggle something in their underpants!" Barry: Oh, totally.

Not everywhere, but I have had security show up at the gate to inspect bags before boarding on a few occasions. And it is stupid, the flight attendant made the guy sitting next to me give up his mostly finished Coke (That he bought after security and smuggled onto the plane in his bag.) Nobody checked bags at the gate that flight. But I do wonder if my two laptops with Li-Ion batteries, one of which is a Dell, are more of a risk than the chance I might buy a coffee or bottle of water at the Airport and bring it on board. Most days - me without coffee should be a bigger concern to everyone.. Steve,

Surely if I thought of them, anyone who actually wants to kill us has, too. Beforehand. Second: How many times have you seen exposes of lapses in airport security? This is no different. Don't blame those who point out flaws in logic. Blame those with irrational logic. Third: I am not the problem. The people who are making up absurd rules after the fact as they go along so that they can cover their asses are. They're frisking granny, not me. Fourth: I should absolutely be on the watch list. I am a male in my 30s, have dark hair, olive skin, and I get nervous on planes. Of course, since they don't profile, it's unlikely to happen.
