Finally! Scissors on a Plane!

[Peter Oberth]

For some reason TSA is announcing today that scissors, screwdrivers and other tools will be off the banned list for items you can bring on a plane. Why do people need scissors, screwdrivers and other tools on a plane? Isn't this just asking for more bad things to happen? Afterall, 9/11 happened because of a few box cutters...

That's true but it is nice to know if your travel sewing kit or something like that got tossed in the wrong bag you will no longer have to fear missing your plane due to the indepth searching.
