Actually, I think the Middle East terrorists already scoped out the national bus system and they found out it wasn't practical. They found out that half of the passengers on the bus system were already scarier than they were. They figured that they would be "terrorist victims" instead of the passengers. So, they went for the planes.
This guy (today) just never got the message. He thought it was "still on".
Hey..., you can't get everyone "on board" in any "organization". There are some stragglers around.
