I have visited DC and been flying commercially and can tell you all it has been a pleasant experience. A little more time at the airport, early arrivals, uncrowded airports and flights. I have several more trips booked and can only say that if some of you are going to change your lives it is your privilege. I will not until there is a rational reason to do so.

You want deep cover? The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. ---"Raymond Shaw" from the Manchurian Candidate (1962) starring Frank Sinatra as "Bennett Marco", Laurence Harvey, and Anglea Landsbury.

"Projected, eh? So you are projecting 1000 sleepers based on what? One event, now projected to 1000's of sleepers. " Your ignorance knows no bounds. You need to do some basic background reading. Then you would not be making bizarre claims that I am merely opining. Here are a few excerpts from what well-informed readers already have seen: dailynews.yahoo.com "HAMBURG, Germany (AP) - Germany may be home to as many as 100 terrorist ``sleepers,'' the kind of extremists who live normal lives until they are activated for an attack, a state official said Thursday." dailynews.yahoo.com ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Sept. 22 — Officials in Europe, the United States and Pakistan say they have identified new elements of the bin Laden terrorist network, including a top lieutenant in Europe and a previously undisclosed cell in the Gaza Strip. At least 11,000 terrorists have been trained in the past five years at camps operated by Osama bin laden across the border in Afghanistan, these officials say. Many have since been dispatched abroad to destinations unknown. Mr. bin Laden and his Afghan camps are only part of the problem, the officials say, and his network of loosely linked cells may already be so vast that eliminating those camps or even Mr. bin Laden himself would go only part way toward confronting the terrorist threat. ... There is also substantial evidence that once terrorists are dispatched around the globe as "sleepers," they are given considerable latitude in selecting their targets and executing their plans in order to minimize communication and detection. ... The scope of the network was illustrated by an operation that started with the arrest of four militants in Frankfurt last Dec. 26. The suspects were two Iraqis, a French Muslim and an Algerian. ... Other cell members were arrested over the summer in Italy and Germany, and an Italian antiterrorist official said evidence seized indicated that the group planned to supply weapons to militants in Britain, Germany and Belgium. ... Such camps in Afghanistan have provided the training grounds for at least 3,000 hard-core terrorists recruited from Arab countries as well as Pakistan and Muslim regions like western China, Chechnya and Central Asia, officials said. ... Another 8,000 men have received instructions on logistics, like moving money, planning sophisticated attacks, blending into Western cities and communicating secretly, officials said.
