just catching up here after days of sadness just outside my window...

i think artboy is right

this question is most likely moot

the terrorists did this and got away with it the first three times because no one expected them to. because that fourth plane was delayed 40 minuetes leaving the airport, the passengers on it who had cell phones became aware of the fact that they had been turned into unwitting missiles and were able to do something about it. now that we're all alert, the terrorists will find some other ways to attempt to damage the nation. i wonder why they're beefing up security at airports but not surrounding nyc's water reservoirs with troops. perhaps a nerve gas attack in grand central may be next. maybe an attempt to take out an intellectual landmark - the library of congress? or, more likely, harvard or stanford or mit?

i'm not kidding and not being dramatic. these people clearly have very big plans. there's lots of them. we can't get them all.

and i'm very, very scared.
