Just got news that the highest security levels have been issued after about 21 were arrested in Britain. Authorities think about 10 American Airlines, Contenental, United filghts from the UK to the US (NYC, Washington DC, California) would have been bombed over the Atlantic. The terrorists would mix two liquids - making an explosive.

More at www.cnn.com (http://www.cnn.com), www.bbcnews.com (http://www.bbcnews.com).

While the concern is international flights, more people will probably drive. At any rate, this can't help the price of oil.

I don't know if this is an appropiate time for levity, but I'd like permission to pour that al-Queda cocktail in my gas tank for a 120mpg run. :D

Maybe the markets figure people are more likely to stay at home....

Oh, hey, I saw that movie. What was it, Lethal Weapon 4 or something? How much you want to bet that the "America-hating" fools got the idea from their regular Friday movie night?
