Not true everywhere. Flying out of SFO, I was asked to open two bottles of water in my carryon so that the screeners could smell them. I had a cup of coffee with me, and they asked me to take a sip of it before going through. (There's a security failure here, if you think about it.) Maybe I just look swarthy and dangerous. -j -- Jamie Lawrence [EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't anthropomorphize computers. They hate that.
