i think we were all trying to avoid that

remember, no shampoo, no toothpaste, no mouthwash. no liquids AT ALL!

anabolic frolic

Meh, I haven't been paying attention to any news the last few days and you know what? This hasn't been on my mind whatsoever.

I'm glad these guys were thwarted, but lets just move on with our lives. The 24 hours news world just spins all of us into a tizzy and for no reason really.

No Typical Raver

i'm still pissed about being woken up at 8am for no reason!


btw shes STILL posting myspace bulletins about the power of prayer and that all her friends should pray for her on her way home.

heatheraloo

8am? Thats like sleeping in for me. Consider yourself lucky. ---unless you work 3rd.

DJ Tranzit

meh.. I'm not worried.
Thousands of flights happen daily around the world.
There's been almost 5 years since the last terrorist attack on a plane.

If we say there's 1000 flights a day, 4 went down on Sept 11th 2001, and there was 24 bombers found (assuming they each take a plane EACH, when it was probably more like 1 place per 6-8 people) then we can say this..

365 (days/year) x 1000 (flights per day) x 5 (years in between) = 1,825,000
1,825,000 - 4 (Planes from Sept. 11) - 24 (bombers) = 1,824,972


28 planes and their passangers suffer a terrible last few moments and die.
1,824,972 planes and their passangers make it safely to their destinations.


I'll take my chances. I'm not worried.

6pm-230am. i usually get home around 3-ish and it takes a while to chill out and fall asleep (usually around 5am) so yeah it sucked also, once i'm up, i CANNOT fall back asleep

the architech

actually Tranzit, I don't thik it's valid to count the bombs that didn't make it through. because really, lots of bombers are stopped, this was just one of the more significant catches. I'd only factor in the successful crashed planes, which makes the ratio even better.

I've never been afraid of flying. people who are afraid of terrorists and don't live in either NYC, London, or anywhere in the Middle East are idiots.

No Typical Raver

OMG THERE WAS ONLY 3 PLANES A MISSILE HIT THE PENTAGON [/hilarious conspiracy theory]

DJ Tranzit

^ whatever the "real" story is, I included it, as that's what the "general public" believes





I even checked up on it... From what I'm being told, there's well over 1,000 flights a day. Like, significantly more, so my ratio is bad compared to what it really should be.

Remman4

you know part of me thinks it was a hoax...

I am glad there were no lives lost and tragedy was averted...

it just feels contrived to me...

maybe I am just a jaded american...

DJ Tranzit

ya know, its not a bad theory...
just a little "scare" to keep the fear installed in everyone.

gives a great excuse to spend more tax payer's money

kylefabulous

keeps the bush administration from being impeached.. is what it does..

i love the town i live in .. ALL of the houses in downtown.. have GIANT signs that say impeach bush.. or trim your bush, or save a forest, trim a bush, or have you heard of burning bush... it's great.. noone here likes him

DJ Saiyan

I think it's a damn good theory.

Well I have been to England and back...
The airports were crazier than usual, but nothing insane. I wondered how it would be since I was an American flying out and back into Canada. Flying TO England was pretty easy. You could take your usual carry-ons, just without any liquids. The airline we were on however, did their usual drink services (not increasing service since you couldn't bring on your own liquids) and my friend and I were terribly dehydrated by the end of the flight. You never realize how much you need something until it's gone!

When we got to Gatwick Airport, everything seemed to be running alright, except for the mass amounts of luggage piled up that missed their owners because of delayed flights and other stuff.

While we were in England we saw pictures of all the lost luggage and heard stories about people being forced off of flights and such. Yes, we also heard the theory that the whole thing was set up by the British Government.

Coming back home was a little bit crazier. We were flying stand-by, so we needed to get to the airport 4 hours max before the flight was leaving. We figured we would be there earlier than everyone else for the flight. When we got there however, over half of the people had already checked in for the flight! People apparently had been coming waaaaaaaaaay early for their flights to make sure they got through security! I went prepared to check everything but my passport and wallet, but they were allowing ONE carry on that was the size of a small briefcase. Still no liquids, but once you got through security (and as long as you weren't traveling to the US), you could buy liquids at the shops inside the gates (i.e. at the duty free).

It was hilarious though to watch people try to get stuff through security. They weren't messing around when they said ONE carry on that is SMALL in size. We had a seat in a lounge near a security checkpoint and played "who's gonna make it" and giggled when people had to go back to check their ridiculously large bags

All in all...it wasn't so bad...of course we knew what to do and played by the rules so we really had no problems.

DJ Tranzit

i always thought the rule was as long as it fit under the seat infront of you, or the overhead compartment, it was ok in size...

no?
