With all the "security warnings" this is a question that has to be asked.

And I'm going to bed now, so I'll take the answer off the air as they say on Talk of the Nation.

Added and lifted from another forum:

"A little perspective:

Number of people dead from terrorist attacks in the U.S. or Europe since 9/10/01:

Less than 3,400

Number of people dead in the U.S. from traffic accidents since 2001:

More than 336,000"

1. I always liked the quote from "Q" to Captain Picard. It applies to life here on Earth also.

"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you oughtta go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross; but it's not for the weak and timid.

2. "Everything I need to know

I learned from Star Trek" :rofl: All kidding aside, that was a wonderful scene bearing a lot of wisdom, and I always loved that line.
