Diapers and Terrorists - Oh My!

A couple of news items grabbed my attention this week and just warmed my heart. First, those alert Germans sprung into action and had a bomb alert when an "electronic nappy" (diaper) set off an alarm. Apparently this gadget is supposed to beep when the little fellow let's loose in the nappy. According to the article this nappy ticked instead of beeped and the squad cars went into action.

From the "I'm tryin' to think but nothing is happenin' department" babies have been flagged by the terror watch list. Apparently their names were the same or similar to names on the "no fly list".

Just imagine what would have happened if the "no fly list" infant was wearing an electronic nappy!
