Jesus, the ash hasn't even settled yet and people who are SAFE and NOT HERE are worried about how it's going to affect THEIR freedom of movement.

Of course they are. That does not mean they have no concerns about the people this directly effected, though. It is not only natural for something like what happened today to make you take stock in what may lie ahead, it is imperative to do so in order to counter any problems that may come down the pike. That is not cold or callous. That is common sense.

Fine. Wednesday would have been f%#king soon enough to bring it up, though, don't you think?-- along with the other threads I've happened across today such as not being able to buy guns at K-mart, when they've said all summer they were going to stop selling even ammo, and yet the one-issue people see THAT as the threat instead of terrorists flying planes into buildings and killing thousands.

Right now I'm hearing that people trapped alive in the rubble are calling relatives on their cellphones. Now THAT'S a damned restriction of their liberty, wouldn't you say? Aren't they the most important 'casualties' at the moment?
