>You think like a terrorist ...

I think like an international diplomat. Maybe I should have gone into that line of work instead of the financial planning stuff (which I also love) since there is one major difference in my current line of work, I have no freaking control what the market will do!

>you actually think that terrorism works.

As cruel as it may sound, it does. Aren't you afraid now? (maybe not you because you live in Toronto but ask my brother in law and his wife who worked near the WTC and you 'll see) There was a plane circling the area during the soccer game today, me and everybody else once in a while looked up just to see that it's not taking a funny direction. Flying will never ever be the same and I got a flight next week, I think I will get there in half the time driving! So, as far as fear goes, the terrorists unfortunately succeded. Terrorism works in another level too that it has the power to change government policy (ask Israel). And to fight it effectively requires a battle in many fronts (and one of them better be diplomatic!)

Last post I think for today, I got some more exciting reading to do and Ted Koppell is once in a while good to wach because he may pop that unexpected tough question to a guest.
