Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Carry rods on a plane

Many moons ago, circa 1984, during a a few months between jobs, I drove for a livery service in NJ. One of my "regulars" was a heavy hitter at an Exxon R&D facility.  I remember picking him and his family up at Newark one evening to take them home after their trip to Atlanta. They recounted to me that when their daughter's carry-on went through the scanner at Hartsfield Airport in Atlanta it set off all sorts of alarms and screams of "There's a baby in the bag! There's a baby in the bag!" 

Upon closer examination it was determined that the "baby" was a Cabbage Patch doll recently purchased at Bablyland General Hospital in Georgia. I can only imagine what might transpire at an airport nowadays.
