Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) managers admonished for ridiculous linking of sippy cup usage to terrorism.
Added Director Tom Radulovich, “If somebody wants to break the law and bring flammable liquids on, they can. It’s not like al Qaeda is waiting in their caves for us to have a sippy-cup rule.”
Directing his comments to BART administrators, he said, “You know, it’s just fearmongering and you should be ashamed.”

Really excellent list and a must read for anyone interested in issues of security, most are applicable to IT security too.
