The really ironic part of all this is that 9/11 instantaneously
changed the psychology of the "Hijackee." Instead of a passive
"hope- to-land-in-Havana" mentality, many people have an active
"rip-hijackers-to-shreds-using- fingernails" stance.
Yup. Bin Laden correctly predicted that. You know he did because all
four planes were to be crashed within minutes of each other.

Every time I hear a message in an airport about "due to heightened
security levels" I translate that in my head to "heightened insecurity
levels", because we surely wouldn't put up with all their crap if we
were truly secure.
