... starts the email I just received from British Airways - 'we'd just like to assure you that even though we've just found traces of a deadly radioactive isotope linked to the assassination of ex-KGB spy Alexander Litvinenko on three of our airliners - everything is under control - no problem.

Er, hold on - so it's been proven that it is possible to transport radioactive  poison on commercial airliners - on a route that is (my guess) probably pretty strict on security. Yet the monkey at <insert your favourite airport here> still insists  in strip searching my wash bag searching for combustible tooth-paste or something. I'd like to see airport authorities divert some attention away from the war on liquid and  focus more on credible threats.

Comments:

Did it ever occur to you that your Mountain Dew that glows with such an unnatural yellow/green hue may be the radioactive culprit that we are all looking for and it just keeps slipping through security since they are surviving on the stuff and have adjusted the detectors based on a perceived malfunction when people are around doing the dew? As long as liquids are around with such an unnatural glow, I can't see how the war on liquids is not justified, we must eliminate these liquids...they are inherently dangerous to civilization. I would have thought the patriot act would have forced pepsi to find a new color additive...maybe Senator Tancredo can help out with this?
