When I asked some friends what the worst attack in the USA could be the imagined destruction was significantly different from before the attack til after.

Now, what is the worst that can happen?  I've heard chem/bio and possible nuke but I have a worse fear.  What about China?  As we all know they do not like us.  They have nuke capability, a 100 million man army, a navy, the Panama canal, and a port in Los Angeles.

They have threatened the west coast recently with nukes if we supported Taiwan.  They held our P-3 crew in a hot standoff.

Ben Ladin is smart enough to plan an attack for years and profit from the event in the markets.  What if he is only the tip of the spear?

Just thinkin'.  All I can do with traffic watch grounded.  Planerench out.

What is the _worst_ that could happen?

Well, think about it.

I could loose Internet Access.

I've spent my whole life in front of a computer. It's what I do for a job! I have accually had withdrawal from my PC!

Ghaa... As long as I have my trusty AR and Baretta and a fast PC all is good.

btw, is that the WTC pictured there?  Kinda looks like em.

I don't see a date but it may have been written before the terrorist attack on the WTC.

I read it long before the attack. I have a subscription and I found the article interesting. Never thought about the picture, though. But, then again when I read it the WTC didn't have the meaning it does now.

Let the Chineese attack.  

Not one plane or ship will reach our soil.  They will be burned and drowned like in the story, "Lennington versus the Ants".  I highly suggest reading it.

The WORST that could happen? A 50 mile wide asteroid could collide with the Earth. That would be the worst.

The worst that could happen to me is that my area gets nuked and I die without ever getting some.

I agree. I would prefer the 50-mile wide asteroid/comet hitting the Earth... it wouldn't hurt as bad.
