Airport security theater Burlesque 

LOS ANGELES, CA - APRIL 17:  An employee of L3...
Via kottke: "We took our shoes off and placed our laptops in bins. Schneier took from his bag a 12-ounce container labeled 'saline solution.'

'It's allowed,' he said. Medical supplies, such as saline solution for contact-lens cleaning, don't fall under the TSA's three-ounce rule.

'What's allowed?' I asked. 'Saline solution, or bottles labeled saline solution?'

'Bottles labeled saline solution. They won't check what's in it, trust me.'"

Read the entire thing; very funny, if it were not so sad... (thanks, walker)
