Homeland security is busy looking for guns, bombs and knives which is good. However,
nobody is considering looking at the passenger for the germ bomb. BINGO!

Dear Joe:
Do you think Super Strain TB guy should be punished for his actions?

Let's see if I understand this. They think someone on the plane may have a contageous disease, so they're going to keep a whole bunch of other people in a tiny confined space with her?

Do you think Super Strain TB guy should be punished for his actions? I thought they finally decided that he didn't have TB after all... not sure how that all got started.

Homeland security is busy looking for guns, bombs and knives which is good. However, nobody is considering looking at the passenger for the germ bomb.Right....so what do you suggest? Cavity searches? Bring our medical records before the government will let us fly?
I've got an even better idea. We just sit around and let the government randomly tell us when we're flying. Who cares if it's convenient? The government is allowing us to exercise our freedoms on their timetable. That's still freedom isn't it?
Mr. SQUID you will be leaving for Spain next Tuesday at 7pm. No I don't care if you want to go or even can go. You're going because it's safe.
Course the common answer to this situation is the girl may be ill or may have a medical condition. But 'conservatives' assume the worst and suggest those knuckleheads at TSA start looking for 'germ bombs'....

Can you imagine?
You know that if it’s something contagious, that every second on the plane is one more step towards catching it yourself. I hope they were at least able to quarantine her in some way from the other passengers, though the air conditioning system might render that useless anyway.

What kind of range did she have? Did she hit the opposite cabin wall, or just the seat in front of her? Just wondering...

Rumack: You can tell me. I’m a doctor.
Captain Oveur: No. I mean I’m just not sure.
Rumack: Well, can’t you take a guess?
Captain Oveur: Well, not for another two hours.
