Sorry for the shouting in the post title, but it’s straight off the TSA “Prohibited Items” website, wherein they detail the latest liquid-free, gel-free edicts for safe air travel. And they are really on it; amongst the latest knee-jerk-off reactions is this gem:

We encourage everyone to pack gel-filled bras in their checked baggage.

If you don’t have a gel-filled bra, by all means acquire one. An involved citizenry is key to the war on terror. Who would have thought it was that simple?
