1. A steel building has never burned down before
2. The twin towers were built to with stand more force from wind daily then the force of the plane crashing into the towers
3. Mayor Rudy Giuliani had hurricane proof glass put all the way around his buildings floor and his own air & water supply for the same floor put in shortly before 9/11(why would he do that if he didnt know what was going to happen?)
4. Right before 9/11he twin towers that were paid for with tax dollars was leased to a man named Larry Sliverstein who changed the security in the towers 1 month before they fell…and this same man made millions of dollars in insurance money when the towers fell
5. According to all the papers the terrorists could not fly at all… they were failing flight school but i am supposed to believe they were able to fly a 757 into the pentagon making a 250 degree turn flying inches above the ground hitting the only part of the pentagon that had been strengthened for a terrorist attack

President Bush can create and control hurricanes. He dictates the supply and price of oil worldwide. He forces people not to work, not get an education, skill or training. He makes people sign bad loans they can’t afford, invades civilized, God fearing nations, tricks Putin and Russia into invading neighbors, hides billions of barrels of oil in his back yard, controls the stock market, can lie and persuade a Democrat controlled Congress to keep funding a war they disagree with, personally sees to it nobody gets health care, designed and covered up the greatest terrorist attack in American history. Christ had nothing on W’s powers. What’s Obama ever done?
Ummm sorry I didn’t mention it. I;m being factitious

I was just listening to Pat Robertson on You Tube. Terrorists do take advantage of political changes, 1993 (Clinton), 2001 (Bush), 2007 (New Congress?). Not a big leap to think of a terrorist attack in 2007. Kind of an anti-climax announcement.

But it did get me thinking, how many people actually prepare for a possible disaster by having a few days of food around, flash lights, medical supplies, that kind of thing. The normal Red Cross Be Prepared kind of thing.

All the "Oh my God the world is going to be destroyed by…" Nuclear war, global warming, terrorists, hurricanes, tornadoes, infestations of caterpillars, etc can leave this one alone.

I just want to know how many reasonably normal people have checked out ready.gov and have some emergency supplies around in case of a disaster.
Thanks. The ratio of real answers to silly answers tells me a lot too. Looks like if there was a major disaster any major urban center in the country things would end up a lot like they were in Louisiana. On the other hand, it kind of looks like people in rural or suburban areas might be better prepared. Kind of a common sense thing I would guess. some kind of ratio of storage space versus costs versus convince and availability, I would assume.

Thanks.
