Maybe we should go back to how it was before 9/11, when we assumed that nothing really bad would happen.

Yes, absolutely, since "bad things" can happen, let's outlaw flying, driving, and congregating in public places in America.

Everybody stay home and watch TV, then we'll all be safe.

That would be good. Then all the Bush-haters who say he is "after oil", etc., and that "he's no conservative" would go back to liking him. National Security is for liberals, I guess.

One classic response to great trauma, disaster, terror . . .

IS

DENIAL.

The other IS

that

ALL IS HOPELESS.

Neither are particularly functional

in terms of protectiveness, overcoming, redemptiveness, restoration, advancement, resilience.

The road goes ever, ever on.

But if err we can return to the Shire, it will NOT be the same.
