@Purdue13 -- we are working on new technology to combine articles so that duplicates go away. Additionally, we'll try to detect dupes upon posting, too. In general, you can up vote or comment on any duplicate and we'll resolve it later.
I love the last comment in the article. It really hit the nail on the head.

It's not just paranoia from September 11. Air travel is cheaper than it has ever been, and this has attracted a large cross-section of sociey that is way less behaved than the relatively well-to-do, well educated travelers that used to be the only ones flying.
