Babies required to prove they aren't terrorists when they fly

...just because their name is similar to one on a list.

Seems ridiculous to me. Especially when the officer at the gate requires the parents to fax the child's passport or something to prove the kid's not a terrorist. Hello? How many 11-month-old terrorists do you know?

Well...in a way it would be possible for the dear little children to terrorise the other passengers... ;)

Oh, quite! But I'm not sure that's what the list was meant for... :p

True. Otherwise one would have to suspend all children, as they pose a potential threat to people's sanity...

Well, darn. There goes my dream of marrying that nice McVeigh boy down the road and naming our first son Timothy. *sarcasm*
