A thought just occured to me, I know that is rare, but what do you think will be the chances of a major attack launched against the US, on 19 Apr 02?

If it were to occur what kind of attack would it be?

"Indications are that they are preparing for an all out attack towards the Mason-Dixon Line."

Fire ants have declared war on the yankees? Ok, lets get it on then.

Hitler was born April 20th, 1889. Not April 19th. At least according to a biography I have.

[texson66]

You're right. I married my first wife on 20 April and the Hitler connection fits!

Well, the obvious answer is that there is a 0.0027% chance of an attack occuring on that day.

Minor point, but it is actually 0.00283. I think you forgot to cypher the value of pi into the hypogynousdeciprication of the secondary denominator. (I did the same thing in my original calculations).

Do you work for Debka?

[Steve0113]

Well, the obvious answer is that there is a 0.0027% chance of an attack occuring on that day.

And when employees call in sick to work, 40% of the time it's on a Monday or Friday.

You're good, what happened on my Birthday?

Lee Harvey Oswald was killed in Dallas on my 6th Birthday!!

[Poohbah]

You're falsely presuming that (a) the terrorists can rationally discern Muslim interests, and (b) if they CAN rationally discern Muslim interests, that they give an airborne improper relationship about same.

>I really don't understand this kind of post. ...I'm so naive with this stuff.

If it turns out that there is an attack on 4/19, then dts32041 gets credit for noticing the upcoming anniversary first.

All the Victoria's Secret swimsuit models check in here, and when they notice someone especially sharp and insightful, well, let's just say that those girls do know how to do more than just shut up and smile...

Well for all who mentioned Waco, OKC bombing, and the start of the American Revolution, I still dont see why you think there might be a major attack on the 19th. I dont think our "Arab Friends" see any particular meaning in those events.

The only way that date is any more likely to have an attack is if some militia guys are upset at Bush and feel that all is lost.

[Almondjoy]

Hmm.. for any date of an attack you can look back in history for a significant event on said date. Hell maybe it's just easier to buy explosives in April.. or maybe he felt the explosives would cool too much in a Nov attack... Btw did you know that Gullaver actually stepped across the Atlantic from France to New Hampshire back on April 19th 2001 BC?

[weegee]

42% of all statistics are made up.

What about the disclosure of a "new" videotape, full version to be aired on Al-Jazeera Thursday?

[ladyinred]

Jaynes birthday?
Now she really was a bombshell!

[SerpentDove]

>..."airborne improper relationship"...<

LOL

[andysandmikesmom]

And I will add my husband, 'andysandmikesdad' to that list...hes a swell dad, a great hubby, and my lifes partner...born April 19, 1943, and been my hubby for almost 33 years now

he will be spending his birthday, cheering on the Seattle Mariners, at Safeco Field, in the company of our younger boy..so hope April 19th will be a good and happy day, just for him..

[Cagey]

Now she really was a bombshell!

She may have been the last of the bombshells. Like Packards, they don't make em like that anymore.

[sinkspur]

I read somewhere that Jayne was decapitated in that automobile accident.

She didn't lose anything valuable.

[Mid-MI Student]

yeah.. I was replying to someones post about april 20th, being 420 and the same day as Columbine.
