Fear. Panic. Terror. Run. Hide.

:yoiks:

The fact is they're no doubt after anything they think they can use. I'm tired of the wall to wall fearmongering.

9. Feds: Science paper a terrorist's road map
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The federal government has asked the National Academy of Sciences not to publish a research paper that feds describe as a "road map for terrorists" on how to contaminate the nation's milk supply.

The research paper on biological terrorism, by Stanford University professor Lawrence M. Wein and graduate student Yifan Liu, provides details on how terrorists might attack the milk supply and offers suggestions on how to safeguard it.

10. There are literally roads all over the internet.
Its one of the things that makes the Patriot Act's invasion of libraries so stupid.

But when it comes right down to it, I don't think they'll do a nuke or bio-tech. I suspect they aren't up to that yet. Besides which there are a lot of low tech, low cost ways to inflict a lot of damage and fear.

14. I think we will self-destruct before the bad guys get their licks in
We are so afraid of them, that we're tearing down our own institutions to get to them. That is the real tragedy in this.

By the time we're done, there won't be much left that's worth defending.

Sigh.

Or rice milk.

11. Screw them! Soy, almond, rice, oat milk, all taste better, and are healthy
for you and healthier for the animals.

Cow milk leaches calcium from your bones...bet the dairy lobby/board did not mention that.
Much safer, try Silk, you can get it at most major grcoery food stores, in the dairy section next to the cow milk. Plus you can stock up the kind in the special boxes that do not need refridgeration, which is always wise.

Try it, it is delicious. Give yourself a little time to adjust, have it with your cereal, or try the soy creamer for your coffee.

Go veggie, it is a perfect time!
