What’s not allowed as carryon right now…
British police thwart aircraft bomb plot on Yahoo! News Photos
Some examples of the liquids and gels that are prohibited in carry on luggage are seen on display at a security check point at Logan International Airport in Boston, Thursday, Aug. 10, 2006. U.S. flyers endured heightened security Thursday, and some flights were canceled or delayed after the discovery of a terror plot aimed at airlines traveling from Britain to the United States.
My coworkers are telling me that today wasn’t a good day to be at the airport.

There’s sort of a philosophical issue there - at what point do we sacrifice too many liberties and freedom for the sake of security? At what point do we look back and say “Oh crud, we’ve become the old USSR - the terrorists won.”?
You can’t have everything - you can’t have complete freedom and complete safety.
How do you find the right balance?
Not an easy question to answer.
