I think some people prefer to live in denial and take it lightly, because that is easier, but I think the threat is real.

In many cases, I'm sure you're right. For some of us though, we have already done what can be done, and the rest isn't really in our control; so worrying about it accomplishes nothing.

Nobody is advocating worrying about it, or being frightened by it. So far we have done a tremendous job of preventing and foiling the attacks, and hope we continue to do so.

But that doesn't mean that AQ isn't planning some very devastating attacks, and we can't relax in our WOT, that was my point. If we let down our guard, all it takes is for one attack to get through to cause death and devastation, not to mention killing the economy.
