I thought that scenario up, the last time I flew home to visit Mom, while I was in my plane, waiting at the end of the runway/taxiway area, for our turn to take off. Hopefully someone at TSA has thought of it too! :hmm:

just try loitering around the edge of the runway of any major airport. even just offsite the airport grounds.

you're gonna have police coming by to give you a couple questions fairly quickly. they don't play around with that.

Actually, cell phones have been blowing people up for many years now.

Yahya Ayyash was a Palestinian bomb maker that revolutionized the art of suicide bombings. He is largely considered the greatest bomb maker the Palestinians ever had and was responsible for dozens if not hundreds of innocent deaths, not counting those yet to come due to his technology.

In 1996 an Israeli spy tricked a friend into giving Ayyash a cell phone. When Ayyash made a call, his muthafucking head blew off! HAHAHA! I never tire of reading that story.

That was a pretty good one. Then there's also this (assassination of one of the perpetrators of the Munich massacre):

The second target of the Mossad was Dr. Mahmoud Hamshari, who was the PLO representative in France. Using an agent posing as a journalist, the Mossad lured him from his apartment in Paris to allow a demolition team to enter and install a bomb underneath a desk telephone. On December 8, 1972, the "journalist" called Hamshari, who received the telephone call to his apartment, and once it was confirmed that he had picked up the phone a detonation signal was sent through the telephone to detonate the bomb. Hamshari was not immediately killed by the blast, but died within a month from the injuries. Israel believed that he was the leader of Black September in France.[16]

Assassination

Following the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, the Palestinian Authority began to cooperate more closely with Shin Bet in hunting Ayyash.[10] Shin Bet learned (through means that remain classified to this day) that Ayyash had, on occasion, spent the night in the Gaza City home of Osama Hamad, a childhood friend of his.[11] Shin Bet had previously had dealings with Kamil Hamad, Osama Hamad's uncle.

In October 1995, Shin Bet operatives approached Kamil Hamad. Kamil Hamad demanded money and Israeli identity cards for himself and his wives. After the Shin Bet threatened to inform Hamas of his betrayal, Kamil Hamad agreed to cooperate. Shin Bet agents gave Hamad a cell phone, and told him it was bugged so they could listen in on Ayyash's conversations.[12] They did not tell Hamad that, in addition to eavesdropping devices, it also contained 15 grams of RDX explosive.[13]

Kamil Hamad gave the phone to his nephew Osama, knowing that Ayyash regularly used Osama's phones.[14] At 8:00 AM on January 5, Ayyash's father called him. Ayyash picked it up and talked with his father. Overhead, an Israeli plane picked up their conversation and relayed it to an Israeli command post. When it was confirmed that it was Ayyash on the phone, Shin Bet remotely detonated it, killing Ayyash instantly.[13]The Militant, an international communist newsweekly, reported that "100,000 Palestinians... attended the funeral".[15]

The State of Israel has a policy that it never confirms or denies its participation

I'm not fond of anything that flies. Especially helicopters.

I firmly believe the lack of terrorist attacks in the US is due to lack of desire by intelligent terrorists, not by people like TSA checking the shampoo bottles of Grandmas. Most of the attacks that have failed, like underwear bomb or timesquare bomber have been simply the result of rank stupidity by the people doing it, nothing more. That is also why airplanes are for the most part safe.

 

[Rubycon]

Forget phones, now they will use printers!

All the "safety measures" are just excuses to take away your rights and search your luggage for stuff to steal.

Although at the TSA / American airline security they go through the motions. When I left Peru it was basically accepted that their agents would steal a portion of our stuff (which they did).

Haha HP. Those printers will also crash your entire print server if you look at it funny. Though I suppose burning down the place is worse. :biggrin:

Microtemps and other one shot thermal protective devices are very reliable; however if one did fail and the fuser went into the equivalent of thermal runaway it could be disastrous outside of a halon protected room.

Charles Bronson did it in the 70s.

I think I'm safe from any of that. My Laserjet 1012 is too basic, plus you would have to go through my PC to get to it since it is USB only
