Don't you just love the security?

From http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,523106,00.html comes this:

When security officers told a 64-year-old airline passenger he couldn't take his bottle of vodka on board a flight, the man decided to drink it instead.

Note that he'd already brought it in on one flight, it was at the connection that he seems to have fallen foul of it all. It was a litre of vodka, effects fairly predictable.

Seems our European brethern have the same inconsistent enforcement of the rules!

Too bad he didn't think to drink the whole bottle on the first flight, although that likely would have had negative effects on catching the second flight.

He was later identified as the captain--Dohh
