^That is a good point. That is the goal of terrorism, so in a sense this is indeed giving into their goals. I will concede there. That said, it doesn't make me paranoid of the government. But again, it is a good point.

This raises an interesting question to me: why is it that liberals are generally more willing to trust governmental authority and management, but when it comes to security issues, the normally government opposed conservatives actually support the state's authority? Considering Bingowings and FanFiltration are both liberals, perhaps you may know the answer to this.

As for you, Zig, I too am sorry to hear that. Where did it get you? Hopefully your sense of humor will not be impaired? :)
