A Little Ghostbusters fun

Why worry? Each of us has an unlicensed nuclear accelerator in our luggage. A Florida man flying to Chicago was pulled from his flight after airport security freaked out over the prop proton packs in his luggage. Apparently, on a screening x-ray, the collection of metal housings, PVC tubing, wiring and other electronics looks pretty suspicious. Ultimately, he was able to continue his trip, with his packs, but not after a few hours explaining the costume to officials.

"Lauren Stover, regional spokeswoman for the Transportation Security Administration, said officials had no choice but to treat the situation as if it were a threat. 'People need to be careful about incorporating simulated bombs into their costumes,' she said."

And remember kids; a proton pack is not a toy.
