Well it seems the TSA has done something intelligent. Well as intelligent as the TSA can be. It seems that [lighters and breast milk](http://edition.cnn.com/2007/TRAVEL/07/20/air.travelers.lighters.ap/) are now ok again on planes. This is actually good news for people like my wife who nurses and goes on business trips. She wants to bring home milk, but they wouldn’t allow it before, now she’ll be able to.

So does she sterilize with the lighter or what?

That’s what I was wondering. Is she smoking while nursing? 🙂

Lighters and Breast Milk would be an ok band name.  
Really great album name though.

Mine! I saw it first!

Breast milk: It’s not just for terrorists anymore.
