I don’t claim to be an expert in anything but my own fear, but the thing I find more terrifying than this actual cartridge discovered yesterday in a package en route from Yemen to the US (which I think now is confirmed to contain a device that could have been detonated remotely by cell phone) is that it’s just as possible that Al Qaeda planned on doing NOTHING with this device – other than inducing terror / fear, and testing our response times and means for later attacks.

At least I’m unafraid of run on sentences.
