[QUOTE="AndyS, post: 740206, member: 20775"] Only ever had one incident at stanstead with a new guy who didn't know better. Occasionally they have asked that I put my pens and refills into a plastic bag but that is quite rare, usually they just nod and go sure. I did have to stop a US Customs official from digging into my kit bag since I knew it had used needles and the ones they now have me on have a tendency to have the caps pop off. That took a little polite explaining that I would empty it for him in full view since I didn't want him to risk a needle stick. In the end he was actually pretty cool about it and thanked me for stopping him since 1 needle had in fact lost its cap. Tell people in advance and make it seem like you are trying to help them out. Of course if they try to take anything off you then time to dig heels in and fight.. at least that's my policy. [/QUOTE]
