Consider not just the people queuing at the check-in, what about those lovely planes full of fuel that we all look at from the waiting area many of which are parked very close to the terminal. An exploding gas canister will go through a 5" inch thick concrete wall not to mention how fast fire can spread. Having said that, with my Mr cynical hat on, the UK government loves these so called attacks; 1. Unpalatable laws can be rushed through under the guise of anti-terrorism. 2. We can sit comfortably in the White House while asking for a handout because we are under attack as well. 3. It takes the public's mind off all the other problems this country is facing. 4. The police love it too, it means they get to walk around with machine guns and blow up cars that "Look suspicious" how you can tell a suspicious car is beyond me? Oh and I'm not convinced about Al-Qaeda either its easier to just tell people it was them than say "It was the Judean Peoples Popular Front" or "The Surrey and Lambeth Ferreters Association". Al-Qaeda is now the bogey man for 2007 I wonder who it will be in 2008/9? -- Regards Dick Turpin Arch Linux is an independent i686-optimized community distribution for intermediate and advanced Linux users. Utilising a Rolling Release System packages are regularly updated and an ISO release is just a snapshot to the stable packages at that time. So there's no need for a fresh install the command 'pacman –Syu' upgrades the whole system.
