Please elaborate. I'm not familiar with those lessons...

Whoops, meant to include this link with that comment.

For me, it depends on where exactly it was put. The picture included in the first post doesn't look like a Lite Bright to me. Attach it to the bottom of a bridge or any other semi-secure location and I can see starting to wonder.

Particularly when in an environment where you're being actively encouraged to watch out for suspicious packages as pretty much every public transportation agency does (and this first package was found near a bus stop).

I'd have to see exactly where they were and exactly what their context was before I ridicule the authorities as over-reacting fools.

But it is good to know that something becomes innocuous if you put a Lite Brite board over it. Maybe if they put a label on it saying "This is not a bomb, don't be scared."
