I live with it - I'm not going to chane what I do. Everyone thought I was crazy for going to Liberty State Park in Jersey City for 4th of July. It's across the river from where the Twin Towers once stood and there were thousands of people there. Anything could have happened. I've also been to Ellis Island and the Statue fo Liberty 3 or 4 times since then. If something happens - something happens. I was in Times Square for the 2000 celebration and if I had someone to go with this year - I would have.

Do you really think the threat is that great because i allways saw 9/11 as a one off

You don't think they have plans for other things? You really can't be serious. The Eiffel Tower was also on their list opf targets - as were many other European landmarks. Tons of documents and diagrams of many US attractions and landmarks were found in the Al Qaeda terrorist camps in Afganistan. Al Qaeda currently has terrorist camps in northern Iraq and are causing problems with the Kurds. Osama Bin Ladin has declared he wants to take down the west and America in particular. There are Islamic religious leaders in Saudi Arabia, Iran and all throughout the Middle East telling students that it is honorable to kill Americans and Jews and take up "Jihad" against the west and the "infidels".

Maybe once England gets attacked you'll see that it's not such an isolated thing. England will get attacked at one point - they're already planning on things as demonstrated by the Ricin incident. I'm not wishing that England or any other country gets attacked - but something is bound to get through at some point.
