I tried to visit www.tsa.gov myself and discovered that it crashes  
Safari (version 2.0.4)... I haven't investigated why. Fortunately I  
could get there with Firefox. Not only is KY Jelly ok (and mentioned  
by brand name even), but it is listed under the category of  
"essential non-prescription liquid medications." This begs the  
question: What is it that people are doing on airplanes these days  
that makes KY Jelly essential? And of more practical importance,  
might KY Jelly be an effective substitute for some of the other  
banned items?
