Yeah, I was just using that as an example. I think most people aren't very alert, and if things are really getting risky for serious attacks against our country, then perhaps offering a BOUNTY and making everyone a BOUNTY HUNTER would help....

It may take just that ONE alert person to stop a serious incident (like the border guard that stopped the terrorist planning the millenium bombing of LAX)

I agree. If they can offer Iraqis $25 million for Zarqawi's head, they ought to be able to spare a few million to help us hunt down terrorists here at home.

This was just posted on a financial forum. Sorry, no links yet. If anyone doesn't like the absence of a source just skip it. I was wondering why stock futures dived about five points right about this time...

Massive explosion at oil refinery just south of St. Paul, MN. Supposedly a lightning strike. I've driven by there many times and they have lots of lightning rods. Of course it is still possible that it was a lightning strike, but it seems awfully strange -- never been one that damaged anything there before. I just went and gassed up. I expect that will directly impact our gas prices here soon.

How strange. I just searched the news and there's nothing on about the explosion. I know it happened because friends (several, in different cars) drove by it
