So if you're working security at the airport and some old lady's purse came through with a book a matches in it...
1. Would you catch it?
2. Would you give a shit?

No, you'd be looking for guns, knives, explosives, pepper spray, metal objects etc.

Not like your going to burn down the plane. The can always depressurize the cabin.

And no, I'm thinking that with the current state of airport security they *probably* dont have anything that picks up trace amounts of phosphorus in something as small as a restaurant matchbook. If they dont see it with the x-ray machine they are SOL.
