TraVeller2022's post reminds me of the stuff we read at Quayle and NEIN -- mostly sensationalized speculation based upon secret information from secret sources, that the reader cannot possibly verify or disprove. If the inevitible happens, and we are attacked again (we might even be under attack now if the ricin fear proves true), then the response from TRAVELLER2022EOMNEINQUAYLE is "See, I told you so," and if the attack doesn't happen during the time period or in the manner as predicted then the TRAVELLER2022EOM's of the world say, "Stupid Americans fall for disinformation, the real attack will begin..." and the process starts all over again, and the NEINQUAYLE's of the world say, "the attacks were stopped as a result of the information that we provided to the Feds, so you better pay attention to us in the future."

Don't get me wrong -- most of the information posted from these sources and others like them are a worthy and interesting read whether the information is presented as fact, opinion, or pure speculation, if only for the mental exercise of preparing the mind and soul for the various possibilities in the very dangerous world that we live in. Just keep things in perspective and remember that "possible" is not the same as "imminent" or "probable."
