Courtney- http://www.tsa.gov/public/display?theme=183&content=09000519800720a4 Has links to the rest of it all, including the PDF of what is permitted and prohibited.

My Swiss Army knife that managed not to attack anyone for thirty years in the air, is still waited with baited breath.I'm waiting for them to start checking credit cards, to make sure the edge hasn't been sharpened into a blade. (sigh.) And, for the free foot massage that any decent airline really should offer me, as long as I have to take off my boots! These folks have no concept of traditional Muslim hospitality, that's probably why the terrorists are so PO'd. [sic]
