Re: Tom 7 Re: Hysteria

"....an extra 2 hours at the airport before each flight. That's about 6 thousand lifetimes wasted at airports every year which is considerably higher than terrorists manage....." Wow, you seriously want to compare the loss of two hours to the loss of a real life to a terror attack?!?!? Seriously!?! You do understand that the loss of a life means no more hours at all? What's next, you want to decide life or car insurance should be discarded because you had to spend ten minutes filling out a form to apply? Is taking those few seconds to fasten your seatbelt (or probably minutes going by the limited mental agility your post displays) every time you get in a car, which must add up to quite a few hours lost over the years, are you going to just as stupidly claim that is a greater "economic cost" than going through the windscreen in the event of an accident?
