The
nuclear storage area at nearby Nellis Air Force Base might be an interesting target. Or it might not be.
There've been as many as 200 warheads in storage there at one time. But there might not be any there now.
If this is a dry run or rehearsal for a LAX-bound flight's hijacking, I can certainly think of a better target.

Isn't "French intelligence" an oxymoron? You familiar with the activities of SDECE and Le Barbouzes during the Algerian War/ OAS difficulties that included at least a dozen attempts on De Gaulle's life? That was a while back, but they've got both their reputation to maintain and a certain body of precwedent to follow as a result. I'd certainly not care to have them upset at me while I was in their back yard.

Why does that still make me laugh?...You are probably as easily amused as I am. I have to join you in this. Sometimes laughter is the best medicine.

Just use a globe and a string from point to point and you will see that the flight path, will pass thou Las Vegas from france--not rocket science!!Sure, all they would have to do was just punch in the coordinates of Rose Bowl Stadium or whatever targt they have in mind into the autopilot GPS system, and that would set the plane's course heading in the straightline direction of the coordinates entered into the GPS, even with the radios and navigation equipment turned off. Sound familiar?

Embedded in what, I'm almost afraid to ask! ;)Have no fear, My Dear.
;o)
My "name" should explain it all.
Nice party you folks had in NYC.
Thanks for the nice report.

In all seriousness, what is there in Vegas that a plane can purposely hit? And just how crowded is Vegas at this time of year? The strip will be absolutely jam-packed at 12:00 - the figure I heard was around 250,000 people.

Lots of big hotels, the Hoover Dam, stuff like that are in and around Las Vegas. It's great. You should go there sometime. But seriously, they could go for the Hoover Dam and cut off electricity out there and worse. Or, they could go to Prrrrrrumph, NV.

I think Tom Ridge is being prepped for moving up in the RNC but is fine as Homeland Security Chief. Just an observation. How are ya cyberant? I'm fine here in Florida. Brother says it was snowing yesterday in Vegas. That was more newsworthy to the Vegans as of yesterday. I believe NV is also a mad cow state meat recall too. For once, the news isn't from Florida.
Something stupid will happen in Florida one of these days again. Something embarassing, as usual. lol

Maybe they were going to attack the air force base? They attacked the Pentagon which wasn't exactly a base or I always think about Hoover Dam.

I'm fine floriduh, good to hear from you.
Say .. have you been following the Rush story ..??
I have a question maybe you can answer. The maid has a lawyer that I believe was involved with the Elian case. Do you know his name ..?? I tried looking up some of the Elian stuff, but I couldn't find his name in any of the threads.

Gee, I can almost remember the name of that attorney. Kendall Coffey? Is that it? They're trying to frame Rush probably because GORE LOST. I tell you they're still mad about the 2000 election and would love to hurt conservative talk radio. Fregards, floriduh voter

No, it's not Coffey. He was on FOX the other night, and it was never mentioned that he was representing the maid. I think it's someone else. If you hear anything, please let me know.
