All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Laptops and other similar devices are looked at very closely when you send them through the X-ray machine. The folks who do the screening are given training on what to look for. I've had to power up and demonstrate my laptop is a working device several times at various airports.
yes...I have too...but those CD rom drives that you can swap out are NEVER inspected...great place to hide a detonator.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
so stow your toothpaste in a bag and check it...or call ahead to Dora's family and make sure there is a store where you can buy some or that they have some on hand for you......your choice...convienence or the potential for planes dropping out of the sky.
Well I may decide to blog about this later, but what makes anyone think it will be possible to detect most liquids and gels? Yes, coffee cups and toothpaste tubes are obvious. But "a terrorist" could hollow out part of a paperback, put a liquid or gel inside a container that looked like playing cards, stick something in the handle of a hairbrush...
That isn't even counting putting gels or liquids into Ziploc bags and taping them to your body. Those metal detectors detect metals, not liquids or gels. So what's next, strip searches? Pat-downs? That would seem to be necessary if they truly want to prevent terrorists from smuggling "liquids or gels" on board.
My suggestion: Stop hassling parents with babies, elderly people, etc. and do some good old fashioned profiling. Because I don't think we have enough time or personal to undress everyone before boarding.
Do we?

...and they serve water on the plane...BOTTLED water.
I take good care of my hair being I'm one of the only natural blondes left. lol
As for the bottled water on teh plane. I've never had water on the plane but if it's like a soda or a juice, you don't get teh full bottle/can. You get a tiny plastic cup filled with ice and about a mouthful of liquid. And, not to state the obvious, but if I'm DRINKING the water, do you really think it has explosives that can be used to blow the plane up? lol
There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
The only answer I found for all this hurt
Is there ain't not answer here on earth
so work in a different field so you can be near your family if being near your family is so important
Wow, if terrorism forces Op and Dora to have to change careers, I would say not only have the terrorists "won," but they've run up the score.

If you were planning on killing yourself by blowing up the airplane anyway, why would it make a difference if you drank some of it? You're going to be dead either way. You forget Valerie, we aren't talking about rational people.

has nothing to do with it, if tehy wanted to live near family they should have chosen careers where jobs are available wher their family lives, otherwise they should enjoy phone conversations because they sacrificed living near family for their careers

I think his point is that he CAN see his family by utilizing the airline industry. That is what we're talking about.
