Stupid rules. About 10 years ago we flew to a number of European
destinations. We flew Toronto to Schipol and then on to Tallinn Estonia.
A week later from Tallinn to Stockholme, and a week after that from
Stockholme to Copenhagen. We then headed home from Copenhagen to
Toronto via Schipol. I had the liquids from my toilet kit in a clear
plastic bag. Holy cow did I ever get a lot of grief going through
boarding security at Copenhagen. I had the plastic bag in my carry on
instead of taking out so they could see it separately, just like I had
it at the other 5 boardings. The guy was really ****ed.

It was funny when my wife and I flew to Denver on Sept 11 2001. Being
the first anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, I was expecting security to
be extremely tight. I guess other people were more concerned than I was
because it was about $160 per person cheaper to fly that day. The
security we went through was slacker than what I had been going through
in Canada and Europe for years.
