Widow Takes Flight Against Fear

The pregnant widow of a passenger who fought back against hijackers on Sept. 11 boarded the same Newark-to-San Francisco flight Friday to make a statement against fear.

``I want to show people it's safe to get back on an airplane,'' Lisa Beamer said shortly before she boarded. ``We can't let ourselves be held captive by terrorism.''

That is one impressive woman. She's gone through hell and yet despite it all, she has the ability to see through the hysteria and hype and see that flying is safe.

Very impressive.
