I'm amazed everyone is so freaked out - COME ON PEOPLE! We are all so afraid it's just shocking to me. Yes, I live in NYC, yes I was here on Sept. 11th, yes I saw the towers fall and lived with smoke and that smell for weeks and weeks and had to show my ID to the military to go home everyday because I lived below Houston Street. So hopefully I am qualified to say, as another person posted on the Times - CHILL OUT PEOPLE! I find it strange that everyone refused to believe that it was a terrorist attack on that Sept. morning and now everyone ASSUMES that this is an attack - we are such an irrational, reactionary bunch of idiots. I'm confident that some sort of attack will happen again but I am even more confident that it will NOT be a plane attack like Sept. 11th - it will be something the "experts" haven't thought of yet, possibly worse. I now live in DUMBO right on the East River and the military often flies helicopters and planes along the river very low and every time it happens I think it's really cool and run for my binoculars.
I've been reading the comments about this on the NYTimes (over 500 now):
