A University of Oklahoma student accused of transporting an explosive device into Will Rogers World Airport last week is free to begin attending classes when the fall semester starts Monday.

Charles A. Dreyling Jr., 24, who is free on $10,000 bail, remains a student at the university, OU spokeswoman Catherine Bishop said Tuesday. He is one semester away from completing an aviation management degree, his lawyer Kent Eldridge said.


Former Oklahoma City Mayor Kirk Humphreys, who is Dreyling's landlord and his longtime friend, said Dreyling had created a ``glorified firecracker'' and then forgotten that it was in his luggage.

U.S. Department of Homeland Security documents obtained by The Norman Transcript newspaper indicate federal agents who searched Dreyling's residence found gunpowder, carbon dioxide cartridges and wires as well as a computer with a video of detonation of a device similar to the one transported into the airport. A preliminary hearing for Dreyling is scheduled for Aug. 31.

1. He should NOT be working in Avaiation management! Hello?!!

Wouldn't his offense preclude his working for an airline? Ya think?

2. Hey! Check the skin color, okay?

Sheesh, we start locking up white people engaged in what looks like terrorist activity, where does it stop? Only swarthy folks can be terrorists, didn't you know?

3. Guess getting released is what happens when...

a local repuke politician "vouches" for a person..everyone else gets locked up and never heard from again. Someone with this guy's name donated $500 to the pol's 2004 campaign---either the kid or, more likely, his father:
