About ten or twelve years ago I was in like at the security checkpoint at the Atlanta airport, and there was a sign with a similar warning. This guy about six or seven people in front of me looked at the notice, turned to the fellow next to them, and said something like "Hey, Bob, I guess I shouldn't tell them about the C4 in my briefcase, then, should I?" By the time he got to "should I" he was on his way to the floor under two or three huge security guys who came from nowhere. He was escorted away quickly. TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
