kosar said:They indicated that the plot involved mixing chemicals(each of which is benign by itself) together in the lavatory. I guess that's the difference.
I'm flying out of the country in 20 days and if i'm not allowed to bring a friggin' bottle of water on to the plane, i'm gonna be pissed!

OK, I give. What steps exactly are we not taking? Yeahs, it's obvious that we are doing nothing because look at all the hijackings still going on in the US. Please fill us all in as to what the US is still not doing....dr. freeze said:looks like the islamofasciists are at it again and yet we still refuse to take steps in our own country to protect ourselves as 20 some odd abdu's and mohamed's are on the loose
how many more terrorist events will it take?

smurphy said:Hopefully this is temporary until they figure out a better system. I can understand for now - think about it - all many airports know is that there was a significant plot in the UK that MAY have extended further. They better as hell be safe today. We should be thankful we're flying at all.
I don't feel bad for the poor souls throwing out shampoo and duty-free perfume. Sucks to be them on this particular day, but if that's the worse crisis they face this week then they have a pretty good life going.
If we are still resorting to a no carry-on policy in effect a few months from now, then we're pathetic and yes - the terrorist will have won. No laptop and water for me, I may as well just live in a prison.
Chadman said:Well, it sounds like we were going to have some planes blowing up in a few days, and if they weren't acting on this info and precautions, I guarantee you I would be blasting away at their lack of preparedness and thoroughness until they know for sure (or as best they can) if there were/are more in the plans.
Sounds like a job very well done by whomever was in charge of this stuff. I assume it was the same people i have been pretty critical of over the past few months/years. I think erring on the side of safety and security - at least for a few days or so - makes a helluva lot of sense to me.
