The sane amongst us know that the recent security measures in airports that keep us from bringing liquids onto planes are about the stupidest “security” edicts to come our way in just about forever. I’ll be flying in a few weeks, and I’m honestly not sure how it’s all supposed to work, us not being allowed to bring liquids and gels onto planes. I mean, will I have to check my pens into the hold? They contain liquid. How about my bladder? Couldn’t I be storing one benign part of a magical liquid explosive in there?

If you have doubts about the viability of exploding an airplane using methods as purportedly planned by the recent London arrestees, or, more importantly, if you don’t have doubts, please to read an enlightening article in The Register: Mass Murder in the Skies: Was the Plot Feasible?
