Here is the President thread where a few things are mentioned about airline safety:

I had mentioned things being taken from my checked baggage, and if they are taking stuff I'm sure it is only a matter of time before they put stuff IN our luggage. Well, low and behold I read an article about a TSA screener putting a bag of white powder in a computer bag of a passenger. This happened at the Philadelphia airport.

I read that this morning. Anyone feel safer yet? I am kind of looking forward to flying for work because I get to see new places and visit people that live farther away than I make it to however I know I'll be nervous and a bit fearful. I was joking with DH that I may be so nervous they think I'm fishy and search me. No big deal but then maybe someone else who should be searched would not be.
