Absobloodylutely.

The positive sample is too small (and thanks god for that) to draw any statistical conclusions. What do we have today. 2 or 3 attempts. The shoe bomber, the pants bomber and who else?

Even if we have preflight observations of them, it is mathematically impossible to get any results out of a sample this size so trying to get them is a rank raving lunacy.
