New Of open minds
One airplane, maybe an accident.

Two? And it "just happened" to hit the other tower? I don't have a problem with qualifying talk about terrorism, maybe I'd say "probable terrorism", but to say it's "possible" terrorism is keeping your mind so open your brain is falling out.
Rest in peace, Jeremy, Mark, Thomas, and whoever else who helped overpower the hijackers on Flight 93.

Actually, the message that came through to me was, "We think this was a terrorist attack, but we're saying that it's our personal speculation that this was a terrorist attack. We haven't heard anything from anybody official, and we'll let you know when we do."

As opposed to NBC which was all but declaring this an act of war before Shrub had a chance to speak.

Open mind? Or closed?

I strongly recommend 72 as a good default.
