I guess I took a bit of a hiatus from ARFcom and i missed the episode about the flaming backpack.  I've been seeing it referenced over and over again and I've had enough.  Someone want to fill me in here?

Yeah I gathered that it had something to do with a plane, but no more than that.  Anyone?

Yeah it happened to TREETOP.  The security workers at the airport were giving him a hard time saying he could take his little tool box or something.  She (the screener) turned on a pen torch when she was playing with it and left in on when she put it back in his bag.  His bag started to smoke and they saw flame.  She screamed "You can't bring fire onto the plane!".  Of course they blamed it on TREETOP.

Not sure if its verbatim.. It was a long time ago.. Can anyone add to it or have a copy of it?
