see, this is the stuff that makes me feel safe, really. Inconsistencies in our airport security.

For example:

I never ever ever take my Sony e-reader out of my bag, just my laptop. In the many many airports I have flown out of, it's never been a problem... until Jacksonville. THEY make me take that, plus my cell phone out of my bag. Um, yeah. Inconsistency.

Buy the tool there.

It sucks that the planes are aluminum, or else you could play "Lets see if the magnetic tank bag can hold on at 560mph".

Ed,

Just UPS whatever you want to "carry" to me

I flew down to florida to pick up the RT...the guy gave me a helmet, but I UPS'd several "items" to him for my 883 mile trip back in the rain
