My wife was traveling to Toronto from Hartford on saturday. She was on her way to a paper mill for a big project. In the ladies bathroom she was on the phone telling a coworker that she was confident that her group would pull off the job without any glitches. Another woman in the ladies room alerted the TSA and they pulled my wife off the plane after she boarded. In her luggage there happened to be pipettes, an infrared temp sensing gun, a conductivity probe, magnetic stirring bars, and other various chemistry equipment she needed for her job.

My wife travels for her job. She flies 5,000 mile plus a week. She was told that such items were problematic to be carrying on a plane in her baggage. Fortunately, a state trooper with a brain was able to verify to the TSA staff just what the items were, and that they were in fact what my wife stated. Once she got to Toronto they were following her like white on rice. Instead of picking up the rental car she just took a cab to the hotel. Someone followed the cab too.

Wives don't take these things too well.......

“Someone followed the cab too.”
