They haven't mentioned anything like that on the beeb yet. Currrently they have an explosive expert on confirming that liquid explosives are a very real threat and easy to get hold of.
I'm just curious, but has anyone heard to what cities these planes were destined for? I know it may be a mute point right now, but I am wondering if maybe the plan couldn't have been city specific...

Hmm.... Imagine that. Muslim wackos causing trouble yet again. Lets see how long it takes for some people to blame this on Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld or the war in Iraq, NWO BS, Illuminati, and those pesky Freemasons.
Shortly before Ramsey Yousef was caught, he flew on a Philippine Airlines 747. After he disembarked in the Philippines, and the flight continued on to Japan, there was an explosion onboard, killing a Japanese buisnessman. It was later determined that the explosive had been hidden in a bottle of contact lense cleaner, with a new type of detonater that had been specifically developed for this operation. This flight had been a test run for Operation Bojinko, and deemed a failure, however, it only failed by a matter of inches. The seat that Yousef had been assigned was the last seat over the main wing spar. One seat over and he would have been directly over the center wing fuel tank, and the plane would have exploded killing everyone instantly, with no one figuring out what happened as the plane was over open ocean between the Philippines and Japan.
That's the reason they are confiscating liquids from passengers.
