If you agree, what purpose would it serve, other than to excite boys like dbu, who love watching stuff blow up?

That doesn't answer the question, but dbu already did. This was the question which your little presentation did not answer: What sorts of stuff would you like to see in the mainstream press two days before 9/11? Pretend you're an editor and you're brainstorming ideas with your reporters.
