I tend to agree with Rokke. It just seems rather silly that terrorists would try something that's such a longshot at working, just weaks after a terror alert about similar scenarios. Releasing the alert to the public an equally dumb idea.

---I've been suspecting something of the sort too--in my mind putting most "laser" stuff in the same category as "dirty" bombs put together out of luminous watch and smoke detector material.

To do damage a laser has to focus energy--more than is going to be emitted from a device held in the hand, powered by flashlight batteries---
