This is a no brainer folks. How soon some forget September 11, 2001. Alarm
clocks with batteries on an X-ray machine look just like bomb detonators.
Stoves look just like stoves which DO have fuel compartments. Fuel bottles
empty or full look alike.
What better way to try and slip it by than to discuise it as a Boy Scout
pack. Forget the hair splitting, use USPS or UPS.
Better yet, just patronise the Tooth of Time traders and treat yourself to a
new stove.
