The "War on Liquid" continues unabated - I had my toothpaste confiscated by the security screeners at San Jose - of course I commended their dilligence and highlighted the fact that their colleagues at San Jose and at least half a dozen other airports had missed the same credible threat.

I wonder if this is all a conspiricy by the toothpaste companies to increase the turn on their inventories or by the screeners to make a bit on the side selling used personal hygeine products.

Comments:

When I was exiting the secure area of DIA this week, I saw another exiting passenger who actually stopped to shop the pre-security table available for passengers to abandon their prohibited goods (bottled water, <3 oz toothpaste, etc.). Perhaps, there's also a used goods market that is part of this consipricy. ;-)

That would be a good system - I'd be happier knowing a fellow traveller could benefit from my half used toothpaste; and that I could bag some sundry toiletries on my way out of the airport :)
