OT1: Happy holidays and best wishes for a great new year to all.

OT2: re: ...only reasonable way to prevent a repeat airline bomb attack ...

I believe there's effective electronic sniffer technology that can detect trace amounts of any "known" dangerous chemical. This is already being used in some parts of the world, and I believe, by El Al.

If you hadn't qualified your statement with the word "reasonable", then flying naked would make it much more difficult to hide a bomb, cause fanatical muslims to not take those flights, and may even help airlines with their falling revenues. ;-)

Unfortunately, the terrorists are winning this part of the struggle. Flying is increasingly becoming a major turn-off and, I suspect, causing many to substitute a "stay-cation" for a vacation.

FWIW,
Ian
