Hi Laz,

Cosmic's a guy, just so you know.

Yeah, I agree that another large scale terrorist attack will result in a groundswell of bloodthirstiness here. And I sincerely hope that doesn't happen for all sorts of reasons.

When you think about it dispassionately, the 9-11 attack was evilly brilliant. Not only did they hit our symbols of democracy, but they did it with our planes, on live television. It had maximum terroristic effect in that it was designed to be maximally traumatic to the greatest number of people possible.

I am hoping they shot their wad, so to speak, in terms of the number of people killed in one stroke and the publicness of it.
