No news is better than this news?

The threat is real whether you want to believe it or not.
Not all parts of the country have the same degree of threats of terrorism as does NYC and DC.

If something happened and you were not 'Warned', would you be one of the first to Shout: "When did they know and why didn't they warn us?"

It's not an alert to Panic..it is an alert to stay Aware should you live in certain areas. This "sense of awareness" will become second nature, I am afraid,as we learn to live in a terrorist world.

Its more the idiot advice that bugs me, than a warning that something might happen.

Duct tape? Being from the South, I fully realize that ANYTHING can be fixed with duct tape, but I hadn't been aware that ANYTHING can be prevented with duct tape also.

What am I suppposed to ascertain about the threat, if all the information I have is 'be aware' and 'get some duct tape'. Is Ridge trying to tell America that terrorists will blow up all US fastener factories? Then the duct tape thing would make perfect sense.
