Wasn't France also the place that found a bottle containing traces sarin? Then claimed it was okay because the bottle was empty and only had traces of the deadly poison. I feel better now they are trying to find it.
BTW they lost 5oz of explosives. How much did the shoe bomber have in his shoes?
What's really making me wonder is why they can't find it. This goes to show just how bad security is. I can see the French being bungling idiots, but security at other airports should have found it quickly.
