Whatever.

I can still wear my belt...and I could kill you with it. I can still carry a metal pen. It could be a deadly weapon too. Or it could look like a pen, and be a spike. Or I could carry acid onto the plane in a coke bottle...or bring a couple of bottles - one Clorox and one Ammonia. Mix 'em up at 30,000 feet. Or I could carry a knife inside my laptop. Or a bazooka in my ass...wait. No, that one won't work.

For the benefit of John Ashcroft's buddies who are monitoring our communications - I WOULD NOT ACTUALLY DO ANY OF THOSE THINGS I JUST MENTIONED.

My point is that technology alone can't keep us safe.
