How about returning things to normal, and NOT allowing the relatively
small number of terrorists in this world dictate how we live our lives? If only it were so easy. How is it "not so easy"? It would require a major political and social sea change, on the same order as what happened after 9/11. I don't think we'll see that (a sudden, utter and complete change in the social contract) happen again, maybe ever? What we will see, hopefully, is a gradual realization that things *are* back to normal, and that we can drop a lot of the goofier parts of our "heightened security." Unfortunately, that happens with almost glacial slowness, and can be instantly and irretrievably reversed at the next terrorist threat. :-( -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
