Sometimes I feel like I must have been born at the luckiest time in US
history. I spent my 20's and 30's after WWII, polio, smallpox, the
depression... before AIDS, overcrowded cities, and now the war on
terrorism.

Oh yeah? Well I spent those years on the 70s and 80s. Sex, sex and rock
and roll! Beat THAT!

Right on!

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

I don't have to beat it, I was part of it. That's the point - 1953 was a
great year to be born...

1949 was the coolest year to be born! You hit 18 in 1967; the "Summer Of
Love". You not only got to enjoy a changing world, you got to help build it,
too.

Funny. I was 9 years old in '67, and the thing I remember most about those
times was the unrelenting bad news on TV, radio, and in the newspapers. It
was a terrifying time to be alive, unless you were stoned, I suppose.

Whether it was inner city rioting, or body bags coming home from Viet Nam,
those were certainly NOT the best of times.

Ten years later now, well, heh, heh, THOSE were good times!

Other than disco and polyester, of course... And high inflation. And Jimmy
Carter.

No, no I remember it was a great time. At least I think it was. Wait a
minute, it's all a little hazy...

Why? Why is it necessary to use this forum to discuss alternatives that
terrorist can use to destroy what they will? Doesn't the news folks do a
good enough job of telling these individuals our weaknesses? Aren't there
enough people already making enough suggestions?

I'm sorry. I'm just getting really tired of turning on TV or the radio and
the first item in the news is a story for the terrorist on how they might
consider an attack. And now, "we" are going to take it a step further with
more ideas. Why? I wonder how many terrorist read this and other
"informative" newsgroups and listen to CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX, CNN, etc.....???

excerpt:

While passenger aircraft are now pretty secure, the same is not the case
for
commercial freighters and private aircraft. It is quite possible that a
smaller
aircraft, or long range transports from foreign nations, could be used for
suicide attacks. This scenario has terrorists renting a small two engine
aircraft (like the Piper Aztec or Cessna Businessliner) and flying off to
any
target within several hundred miles. These aircraft rent for about $250 an
hour
(with a 3-4 hour minimum). They have a cargo capacity of about half a ton,
and
that could be filled with explosives. This would give the terrorists the
equivalent of an American cruise missile (which has a one ton warhead.)
These
aircraft have a maximum take off weight of about three tons and only carry
about 500 pounds of fuel. Probably would not bring down a large
skyscraper, but
would do a lot of damage to the White House or most other government
buildings
in Washington. You can buy these aircraft second hand for $200-300,000.


I hate stuff like this, but I think it's better to toss it out there and
shine
light on it than stick my head in the sand and pretend it isn't there.

Don't worry. If we could get Al Qaeda to watch our TV news, their IQs would
so decline that they'd no longer be able to find the US on a map.
