Strange, if true (and I suspect it is.) Even more peculiar is the airline counter ticket agent saying "you can take your fish on board" and the "security" people saying "no you can't, no small pets allowed". Obviously, the right hand knoweth not what the left hand does in the brave new world of airport security nowadays---and (again, assuming it's all true) the average person isn't supposed to be upset at such nonsense?

Foreign journalists, foreign women, and now fish in little plastic bags....Oh yeah, we're all ALOT safer now that Tom Ridge and his merry miscreants are dilligently scrutinizing THEM at the airports...

    As a former employee of the TSA, I can tell you first hand this is really is just that ridiculous - and more.

    Just ask the mother that they asked to drink her own breast-milk when they said she couldn't bring it on board. (There was a rule that didn't allow for open/opened containers of liquid to be carried on board or run through the x-ray).

    To whom much is given, much is expected.
