Hi Croc,

I think you misread me. I was being serious for once, and definitely not hysterical. I don't consider this a personal fear or an hysterical distortion. I am just pissed that such "Western domination" haters can peacefully coexist in this open society and then spit out their anti-Western domination venom either verbally or through acts of extreme violence and that our society is vulnerable to this form of infiltration and attack.

As for us, our plans remain the same as before 9/11. A trip out to Guam next month to catch the Leonid Meteor Storm scheduled for that longitude, flights to Montana and a couple to Salt Lake for skiing in Jan, Mar, and April, plus a July getaway to the big island followed up by an adventure trip - over to Moscow, out to Irkutsk to tour in and around Lake Baikal and that general locale during August with a focus on the throatsingers that inhabit that bit of Russian backwoods.

Serial killers aren't in the same league as these terrorists. If the 9/11 terrorists could have had their way, they would have killed many more innocent victims. Given the right weapons, they still may. I think the news media is being hysterical about these little isolated and generally inept anthrax events. They don't have the "bin Laden" signature. I am looking elsewhere for something a whole lot more effective.
