[MR] sewing notions on airplane?

[Signora Sveva Lucciola]

Instead of relying on our say-so, here is the official list as
published by the Transportaion Security Administration. (The list
really starts on page 2)
http://www.tsa.gov/interweb/assetlibrary/Permitted_Prohibited_10_16_2003v2.pdf
Their main website is: http://www.tsa.gov/public/

I would recommend you print off a copy, because sometimes the people
you meet in the airport aren't as up to date and will still argue with
you. And, if they aren't convinced by the paper, don't press it...so
don't take anything you would be heartbroken to lose.

=====
"If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. 
If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. 
But I arise in the morning torn between the desire to improve the world, 
and a desire to enjoy the world. 
This makes it hard to plan the day."
