Batteries have not been allowed on flights emanating from India for some 
time. It always surprised me, and still does, that these security 
agencies blithely allow us to get on board flights toting laptops and 
cameras with powerful batteries, but throw a tantrum about an AA battery 
powering some kids' toy, which is promptly confiscated.
