Nice solutions, Nittany. My biggest problem with all of this is the utter foolishness of the media. If they would just step back and see how silly they sound- specifically by fostering a climate of fear- and present the facts, I think it would do much good.

And I agree wholeheartedly that it is up to private citizens to remain eternally vigilant and aware of what is going on around them. President Bush asked us to do that after 9-11. But I think that many fail to realize that his simple request should be part of our daily lives- terrorism or not.

Thanks again!
