It says that they are probably next, but they don't know how they could find matches other than through physical searches.

March 1st is suspenders.
April 1st is pantyhose.
Do we know how to fight a war on terror, or what!

Maybe I'll carry two sticks in protest. Or a stick, a bow, and a board with a shallow hole in it with a pocket full of tinder.

Blue tip matches are easy to carry.

For whatever the reason they seem more interested in making the lives of law abiding CITIZENS as difficult as possible. Illegal aliens are free to enter at will, but God help the guy who just wants a cigarette.

Stupid Senators!
They ought to be old enough to know that the plastic the he had in his shoe cannot be blown up by lighting it, it requires a detonator. If he had lit it he would have had the all time hot foot, it burns real neat!

Shhh! Don't complain too loudly. They'll make smoking prohibited, yet.

Zippo stock in 2005?

I guess they haven't thought about someone running amok with fingernail clippers yet! That little metal file attachement could be used as a weapon-I say we ban those too!

I see zippoes going off the shelves.
Since I don't smoke or fly anymore, I can fart in your direction>

To: dalereed
how did the body cavity explosive Chechen women detonate their hidden bombs? there is no reason to have a lighter or matches on a plane, you can't smoke anyway.
To: Pan_Yans Wife
A lot of airports already have. Try a two hour layover in Detroit, no smoking anywhere and the checkpoint lines are too long to go outside and still have time to get back in.

Fingernail clippers were banned immediately after 9/11.

The point is for when you land. You fly to a distant city, and have cigarettes in your pocket. Why should you have to buy a lighter?
