Tim,

I wonder how many of your terrorists are planning tea parties?

From that same article:

"Boston was jittery over threats of an attack last Saturday. An Arab in a bar was overheard to say that blood would flow in Boston on Sept. 22, and U.S. intelligence intercepted a conversation between Algerian diplomats talking about “the upcoming Boston tea party on Sept. 22.” It turned out that some women really were holding a tea party that day."

If you were a little skeptical of what you read in the press (and I showed you some other examples of their objectivity) then you might realize that "suspected ties" doesn't mean sleepers terrorists with stinger missles. They are people that, for some reason, the FBI wants to interview. Most are being held on visa expirations, a terrorist worth his salt would keep his visa up to date.

1000 "sleeper" terrorists is a perfect urban myth. And you are the perfect person to invent and spread the myth.

So you recommend everyone hunker down and hide, and conserve cash by not going out to dinner or buying stuff or taking airplanes (though you stay in the market). What will be your advice when the layoffs reach every household, when all equity classes crash in price? Will you feel safe then?

Give me the odds... what's my chance of being killed by a terrorist?

John

A little insecure, Tim May? Need to throw insults, makes you feel better?
