Only one in five of those who worry about a terrorist attack say it affects how they live.
For Tony Volpitta, a 34-year-old father of three daughters from Curtis, Ohio, it's more of a nagging fear about the future.
"I just hope I can watch them graduate," Volpitta said of his daughters. "I hope we're not all on the run like in 'Terminator.'"
