[IP] more on more on YUP!! results of uk ban

[David Farber <dave@farber.net>]

BTW I assume that the reason they ban the carry-on liguids you buy  
AFTER security is that they have no real trust in the security of the  
"secured" areas. Too many low paid non cleared people work there.

Given that we had a few "experts" on this list about 3 weeks ago  
talking about the risks of "liquids" I think we should turn them in  
to Scotland Yard.   It's just too, too convenient that they were  
talking about this so close to the event, don't you think?

It should be illegal to talk about any technology that we could  
fantasize might be used by suicide bombers on any internet service  
that can be read by anyone who doesn't have a security clearance, right?

And by the way, the CRC handbook should be removed from college and  
high school library shelves.   Those dangerous chemical and physical  
facts can easily be used to damage the hull of airplanes (it would  
take me 5 mintues to take an airliner down with items that it would  
be extremely hard to prevent me carrying on board - perhaps if you  
thought about it, you could do so also.  They teach stuff like that,  
I'm told, to all CIA agents).
