Terranson [EMAIL PROTECTED] If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place...

I felt a great disturbance in the Force . . . as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

Never more true than now, where the focus is on fingernail clippers and on New York City. (BTW, I am watching on CNN the implementation of a "car pools only" rule for cars and trucks entering NYC. Vehicles with just a single driver will be not be allowed to cross the bridges or enter the tunnels. Gee, this means the attackers will have to find an accomplice to ride along with them...now where would they possibly find _that_?) The attackers pulled off the 911 attack with skill and boldness. (No, I am not endorsing what they did. But I find the claims that they were "stupid" to be dangerous and, well, stupid.) The likelihood is that the the couple of hundred (or more, estimated by "Newsweek" from sources) sleepers will do something completely different, something planned months ago and ready to be carried out. I could easily speculate what Rounds Two and Three might look like, and have on other lists. New York will probably not be the target this upcoming time. --Tim May
