Oh - it's supposed to be *liquids* is it ? I couldn't understand why
they'd confiscate bottles of *water* or pop.

I couldn't imagine a long-haul flight without at least 2 if not 4
litres of water with me. Helps prevent DVT never mind just making you
feel better by not getting dehydrated.

I expect the aircraft carry extra water etc., to prevent passenger
distress.

Free,or at airline prices?

I used to bring a couple of cans of Coke in my briefcase along with
snacks,because some flight attendants were stingy with the soda and
snacks.Now,I hear that they may not supply them at all.

I suppose they could ask you to drink a fair sample of your "water" or
soda.

There was a report this morning that said they thought the
explosives were going to be put in false bottoms or capsules inside
larger containers so the terrorists could drink from them.

Still no reason to ban water which is typically in clear plastic 'bottles'.
