Since it's been about one week since the TSA started it's crackdown on confiscating all cigarette lighters from all luggage (carry-on and checked), I was wondering how the diving community has fared with this. I know a lot of us smoke, and bunches more carry lighters with our save-a-dive-kits to melt plastic, nylon, candles, what-not.
Myself, I find this incredibly annoying. Now whenever I fly to a dive site, I'll have to purchase a whole new lighter to stick in my fix-it bag, and then remember to throw it away before I return to the airport. The Boy Scouts, hunters, and smokers must be totally flipping out.
