New Potter script in flight row

[Setarime]

American airport staff almost stopped Harry Potter author JK Rowling boarding a flight because she would not part with the manuscript for the final book.
Rowling was not prepared to stow her top secret notes for book number seven in her check-in baggage when she flew back from a book festival in August. Eventually she was allowed to take them on the flight, bound in elastic bands.

Quote from BBC news website.

Its only a book, did they think it was magic exploding paper??

Agree mate, that is bordering on the ridiculous, and I don't blame her from wanting to have it with her, where she knew it would be safe.

Exactly, sometimes the security is not good enough, but then there are times like this when it is much too strict.

And yes, if that gets stolen, there will be copies out all over the place, and the end of the series would be ruined. Some people are crazy over these things...
