I think this was my first post as Doughnut Monster
Real good taste Shaneo.
Very creepy
He had a paragraph talking about how he was warnign the world of Bin Ladden when the effing C.I.A was funding him...
Anyhoo.
" People being crushed by falling masonary and steel or incinerated by fire from aerial attack look, sound and smell exactly the same whether they are in Beirut, the West Bank, Baghdad or Manhattan "
Quite frankly he is saying that innocent people died in Manhattan in a horrible event, BUT America is treating like their blood is worth more than an innocent person who has been through the same event.
Just think before you all start calling for blood etc.
Coping With Disaster
The American Psychological Association provides solid advice for
"Coping with Terrorism."
http://helping.apa.org/daily/terrorism.html
Then read the series of questions and answers entitled, "Coping With
the Aftermath of a Disaster."
http://helping.apa.org/daily/tassey.html
New York City has an excellent site to help you talk to your kids
about the disaster. It's called "Coping With Children's Reaction to
Disaster," and is at:
http://www.ci.nyc.ny.us/html/oem/html/disasters_and_children.html
Dig this: Undoubtedly you've received the e-mail message explaining
that in 1654, Nostradamus predicted the terrorist attack. "World War
III would begin," he said, "with the fall of 'two brothers,'"
supposedly a reference to the destroyed World Trade Center towers.
(Coincidentally, Nostradamus also said everyone would stick with DOS.
Or was that OS/2?) It's a hoax. Read about it here:

Getting the News
I can't stand not knowing what's happening. In the last few days, I've
found some spots that seem to provide coverage that's current,
accurate, and comprehensive.
Start with Google's brilliant service. With so many people trying to
log on to the same sites, access may be sluggish or unavailable.
Google has put together its "News links and support information
regarding attacks" and Google constantly caches the links onto its
servers. You get current access to sites without the wait.
http://www.google.com/news/
The World Watch Monitor is an excellent site for short, one line,
chronological updates. Information is designated as confirmed or
unconfirmed.
http://monitor.airsecurity.com/
I also toggle between http://www.msnbc.com and http://www.cnn.com;
both sites are packed with rich and current news.
Not sure what all this is about because I copyed and pasted it of an email I got, the sites listed are very helpful.
