Security Short:

(A Humorous and Completely Fanciful Little Featurette)

A distinguished professor, whose name and university affiliation are being withheld pending proper notifications, was arrested yesterday at Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston (TX),  while trying to board a flight with a calculator, protractor, compass, and slide rule.

The security crew immediately searched the elderly man when they saw him boarding with a calculator in his hand. A search of his hand bag revealed the devices. The man was charged with carrying 'instruments of math instruction.'

Further investigation has revealed he is a founding member of the "Al-Gebra" network.
