I wanted to share the best psych advice I've heard since 911 from a psychiatrist on FNC today, who has written a book.

She was queried what is the need to know if we cannot do anything of the level being raised.

Her reply was as Americans we do not like not being in control of our own lives. Being forewarned can afford us some control. Like if we fear bridges, we stay off of them. If we fear tunnels we stay out of them. For those of us who fear flying in general, this gives us an excuse not to.

I thought her remarks important as related to our threads and posts. We who have been involved with this for months, weeks etc and who even lose sleep over it and get accused of being obsessed, seems to be our way of working through this. If we investigate, research and stay one step ahead of the game, it gives us our level of control to feel in command of our own lives.

So I thank this woman, because even with the smallest thing it is our way of dealing with terrorism. Our way of being aware to look left and right.

And hey, those glasses at the spy shop even lets us see who is behind us -smiles-
