Oddly Enough News | Fake Explosives Lost

Oddly Enough News Article | Reuters.com: "PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Security screeners at Newark Liberty International Airport lost a bag containing fake explosives used to test the airport's bomb-detection system, federal officials said on Wednesday.

The bag was mistakenly loaded on a Continental Airlines flight to Amsterdam, where it was retrieved on arrival, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration said. The airport near New York City was one of three used by the Sept. 11 hijackers."

Rene had posted about some french cops that lost some explosives a couple of weeks ago. Now I find out that we're almost as bad. Unlike the french though, we didn't use real plastic explosives AND we were able to retrieve the bag.
