In the spring of '02, I went to MSG for the Big East tournament with a buddy. They took his mini lockblade that was on his key chain, but missed my micra. The next time I flew, I remembered to take it off my keychain as I got out of the car at the airport. Unfortunately, this means I don't have it on my keychain anymore. Casey
