#1 Massachusetts trooper Timothy R. Murray, a bomb technician, was called to the scene and determined the devices were pyrotechnics. He lit a match to one of the devices, which set off a shower of sparks, according to the affidavit.

Sounds like a 4th of July sparkler to me. Murray must've been laughing his balls off...

#2 Sounds like someone is testing the efficiency of the bomb sniffers and security.

#3 He cleared security in Riyadh and was placed in transit through Frankfurt? I suspect that loophole will be closed promtly.

#4 This transocean security thing is working like a funnel. Everyone enters at the big mouth top and exits at the narrow outlet of the funnel at US customs. I would sure like to see other airports across the pond tighten things up. We need to put the heat on these other countries. Of course we first need to develop trust.....
