[ccp4bb] crystals as carry-on items

[Arthur Glasfeld]

Sorry for an off-topic, out-of-date concern. Also, I'm almost certain  
this has been discussed before, but my search of the archives didn't  
turn up anything.  I am flying to a synchrotron this weekend and   
would like to hand-transport some crystal plates.  Does anyone have  
any recent experience with the TSA that might make this an easier  
task?  Is it even possible any more?

Thanks in advance for any advice that can be provided.
