Take a deeeep breath. Now turn back the clock to 9/11 and assess what's happened since... Wouldn't you rather spin your equation with a sense of actual history?
"...Deeep breath..., turn back the clock....spin your equation...", blah blah.
If your sense of post-9/11 history was actual, why would *not* describe it in your post when trying to make a point?
Wait...Give me a minute to set up my babblefish software...
