Lighters and Breast Milk

The TSA has announced that "Lighters no longer pose a significant threat" and as a result they will be allowed on planes. Oh, and breast milk too, although I'm not sure that ever posed a threat, they just banned it to annoy people. I haven't heard of any breast milk based terrorist plots.... yet. In any case, out friendly airport security personnel are no free "to focus more on finding explosives, using behavior recognition, conducting random screening procedures and other measures that increase complexity in the system, deterring terrorists."

If complexity in the system was their goal then they deserve a pat on the back because getting through the airport is nearly as difficult as doing you income taxes. Enjoy your lighters and breast milk while you can. I'm sure they'll take away something else soon. Socks and underwear? Tissues and raisins? Milk and cookies? Chocolate and peanut butter? We'll just have to wait and see.
