Guess the baggage people complained?

Wish this had been in effect two weeks ago when I flew to Oakland!! My new carry-on I had to check really got filthy and mangled.

Travelers, enjoy the news! You can carry liquids on board now:

Great news!

However... 1 quart of liquids per person means that it would only take 124 passengers to combine to a barrel of liquid explosives. I wonder how can they say that "travel-size liquids are safe to bring"? Aha! It just a money question: "The revised security rules will likely reduce the amount of checked baggage, which increased dramatically after the TSA implemented a ban on all carry-on liquids and gels Aug. 10".

My thoughts exactly! This has to do with *money*! Plus, all those perfume and alcohol shops in the airports...they would've gone out of business! Makes us wonder how "at risk" we were with our liquids, anyway! When money is more valuable than our safety... :)
