Hello Orchidland,

    Tamra's story about inadvertently carrying on a "dangerous" tool
    reminded me of a series of flights I made several years ago - BEFORE
    9/11. 

    One of the tools I always carried was a switch-blade knife that was
    attached by a cord to my belt. Another tool was a long stem
    thermometer with a pointed end for checking interior food temps. I
    always carried these items onboard in my brief case, along with all
    the other inspection equipment, and thought nothing about it.
    Honestly, it was after the third plane flight that I realized such
    items were not appropriate to have in my carry-on! Security never
    said anything. Things are different now!
