Travelers within and from the UK rejoice: Beginning next weekend, larger carry-on bags and some liquids, including toothpaste, will be allowed on board once again.

The changes, especially permitting larger carry-ons, are certainly welcome. The earlier restriction was absurd, making it impossible to carry anything larger than a briefcase.

But America’s TSA and Congress aren’t allowing toothpaste on board anytime soon. The liquid ban remains as-is.

So if you’re flying from the UK to the US, not only have the terrorists won, so have the Cavity Creeps.
