My Life With The Thrill Kill Cult - [Lucifer's Flowers]--- This is one of the most well-written articles, on this subject, i've ever seen. By which i mean that it says everything i'd say, if i still had newspaper contacts. *nods*

"Interesting fact: In the year after 9/11, many people stopped flying. Road deaths spiked."

If i had the money and contacts, i would love to do that... See what conclusions i came to, and so on.

I remember deciding that death was really scary because I wasn't ready for it. But so was college, when I was twelve, and by the time I got to college I was beyond ready. Dad had to prompt me to remember to hug him goodbye. It was time. That's what I'm going to do with death. It's not coming for me until I'm ready. It's not scary at all. Optimal time for a terrorist to kill people will be when I have passed, until I am ready. And so forth.
"We convince ourselves, emotionally, that we are immortal."
Perhaps. But it's only a delusion if it isn't true, and there's still the "we're Screwed!" rule from Werewolf. It is in effect everywhere, and applies to terrorists.
In any circumstance in which there is a chance that you are screwed and there is nothing you can do about being screwed in the event that the chance pans out, you are to act as if that chance actually has a probability of 0. There's no point. So the guy behind me might be a killer. So what? I can't defend myself against him AND the six other people next to me in this crowd who might also be killers. So I'm as well-off treating him as a normal person as I am treating him as a killer. So I do. There's no reason that'd change after seeing bodies, or watching people die.

Exactly. It affects you, because youre human, but you also have to accept the fact of it, and move on. Hm.
