5. I have IBS. Airline food messes me up *badly*.
Especially if there is any kind of a dairy product in it.

The government needs to rescind many of these restrictions.

* Water. People *have* to be able to bring water on board.
* Food. Many people have dietary requirements which are not satisfied by recent no food served on flight airlines.
* Medications. In my opinion, there is absolutely no excuse for banning any of them.
* Cosmetics and personal hygeine stuff. Give me a break. Nobody goes on a flight of any significance without these things. To ban them is just plain outrageous.

We've got to take a strong stand on this.

The government is acting extremely irresponsibly on this matter. The next thing that will happen is that some terrorist organization is going to put together a plot (real or otherwise--it won't matter) using explosive underwear. What will TSA do then? This shit has to stop somewhere.
